The drought is over, Phoebe Bridgers fans: The singer-songwriter will play her first solo show in three years this Friday, May 8, at the Liberty, a small club in Roswell, New Mexico.

Rolling Stone has confirmed the news, which was first spotted by eagle-eyed social media users via a printed flyer (how old-school!). The show is not yet listed on the 400-capacity club’s site, nor Bridgers’ own.

Her last solo performances were at New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium in the spring of 2023, when she was an opening act on Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. She also continued playing shows around that time with boygenius , her supergroup with equally brilliant songwriters Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker; they made an appearance on Saturday Night Live in November 2023 and played a pair of acoustic shows the following February at the Smell in Los Angeles, where they announced their hiatus .

Since then, Baker teamed up with fellow Southern musician Torres to make an excellent country album released in 2025, and Dacus took a step forward with a new solo album, Forever Is a Feeling . Bridgers, meanwhile, has remained more or less off the radar.

Her most recent solo album, Punisher , came out six years ago, in 2020. It was a tour de force that established her as one of the decade’s most essential and original voices, and teed up the even bigger success she went on to see with boygenius.
