Nov. 27, 2017, Stephen Thompson Phoebe Bridgers songs come laden with sly, finely detailed observations about unsuccessful flirtations with hypnotherapy, unsettling conversations about Jeffrey Dahmer, and everything in between. Her phrasing is impeccable warm, cool, conversational, gently slurred but her songs also swim in the selfaware obsessions and messy meanderings of an unquiet mind. Joined by Ethan Gruska and Rob Moose, Bridgers popped up at the Tiny Desk a couple weeks after the release of her fulllength debut, Stranger In The Alps. Together, they celebrated the occasion with languid renditions of three of the album s best songs: the sad and seductive Demi Moore, a drastically muted Motion Sickness and a pianodriven take on Bridgers firstever single, Set List Demi Moore Motion Sickness Killer MUSICIANS Phoebe Bridgers (vocals and guitar); Ethan Gruska (piano); Rob Moose (violin) CREDITS Producers: Bob Boilen, Morgan Noelle Smith; Creative
