(Manchester Orchestra) (Phoebe Bridgers)

Taking a minimalist, soft approach to Manchester Orchestra's "The Gold", Phoebe Bridgers brings angelic harmonies to the subtle and tender cover.

Phoebe Bridgers has already had a jam-packed year of festival appearances like The Great Escape, opened for Bon Iver, and has now revealed her take on Manchester Orchestra's "The Gold".

Startlingly delicate and ethereal in delivery, Bridgers offers a completely new take on the indie-rock group's original.

Having delivered her debut album Stranger In The Alps to great critical acclaim last year, Bridgers is on course to cement herself as one of 2018's most exciting, and compelling artists.

Currently on tour in the US, Bridgers will return to the UK for a few dates after smashing her biggest headline London date at the Islington Assembly Hall earlier this year, which will include a performance at London's Scala on 21 August.

Amongst her busy tour schedule, she will be supporting the likes of The National, Conor Oberst and American Football this summer as she continues to be picked up by some big names. Find out more.
