Developing story first seen 9 minutes ago
Phoebe Bridgers has released "On Video," an original song written for A24's crime thriller Primetime, marking her film-scoring debut and acting debut. The track plays over the film's end credits and features a dynamic arrangement that begins gently before erupting into distorted intensity, then receding into a tender haze. She premiered the song during her "The Lost Tour" stop in Chicago last week and has since performed it in Columbus, expanding her creative range beyond her August album Lost Weekend.
"On Video" arrives as Primetime enters theatrical release following its Venice International Film Festival premiere. The film is directed by Lance Oppenheim and set in 2006, starring Robert Pattinson as To Catch a Predator host Chris Hansen, alongside Merritt Wever, Skyler Gisondo, Matthew Maher, and Bokeem Woodbine. Bridgers' North American tour continues through November 1st with support from Alex G, before the trek resumes in Europe from late November, with Isaac Wood and Anaïs joining as additional support.
