Phoebe Bridgers has added Manchester to the line up for her highly anticipated Reunion Tour, which is due to kick start in the US next month.
The Grammy-nominated singer song writer, who is responsible for smash hit tracks ‘Motion Sickness’, ‘Garden Song’ and ‘I Know the End’, is getting ready to go back on the road, where she will take her new album ‘Punisher’ to audiences across the US and Canada.
And, for the last leg of the tour, Bridger will be bringing her music to the UK and Europe for the very first time.

Punisher has been very well received by critics, with NME describing it as ‘atmospheric indie with an undercurrent of anxiety’.
The Evening Standard said of the album: “A solemn record, but there are beautiful, unambiguous flashes of affection and hope.”
And Record Collector noted: “Consider Punisher the first truly great record from an artist whose career is likely to be stacked with them.”
This leg of the Reunion Tour includes a number of dates in June and July, with a stop at Manchester’s O2 Apollo and an appearance at this year’s much-anticipated Glastonbury Festival, which is making its grand return after a two-year hiatus due to the Covid pandemic.
And better yet, $1 of every headline show ticket sold will be donated to The Mariposa Fund, fiscally sponsored by The West Fund, which helps pay for undocumented people trying to obtain reproductive health services, including abortion.
With four GRAMMY nominations, multiple late night TV performances – including a smashing debut on Saturday Night Live – a sold out US tour, multiple festival appearances, and collaborations with music greats like Paul McCartney and The Killers, Bridgers is a real talent, and knows how to put on a show.
Phoebe Bridgers will be taking over Manchester’s O2 Apollo on July 23rd, as well as a number of other venues across the UK.
