Phoebe Bridgers has teamed up with Catbird on a new lyric-themed jewellery collection.
The collection, which is now available to shop online, features a variety of new and previously sold-out charms with designs that have been inspired by Bridgers’ music.
The charms are available in sterling silver and recycled 14K yellow gold.
“It’s here!” Catbird wrote in a post announcing the collection. “A collection of charms that are a celebration of friendship, of feeing, and of the unknown.”
“I exclusively wear Catbird and have for years, because nobody makes jewellery small enough for my taste except for them,â Bridgers told Vogue. âSince my first tour Iâve been wearing this stuff, like the safety pin earring, and the tiniest, tiniest studs. An ex got me a little charm necklace that I wear all the time and people are always giving me skeleton stuff. Itâs amazing â itâs like having my own wedding registry.â
Bridgers also told the magazine that the brand is donating $25,000 (£21,000) to the National Center for Transgender Equality.
âWith such a historically gendered thing as jewellery, it felt special to be able to point to the stuff I care about and not participate in the archaic views around it,â Bridgers said. âEspecially something that is so related to class. Itâs cool to be using diamonds and pearls to pay for trans rights.â
In other news, Kristen Stewart will direct three upcoming music videos for Bridgers’ indie supergroup Boygenius, which also includes Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker.
The collaboration was revealed in a recent Rolling Stone story compiling outtakes from the magazineâs recent interview with the trio. Stewartâs previous credits as a director include a video for a live, reworked version of Chrvchesâ âDown Side of Meâ that was released in 2017.

While itâs not clear which songs from the bandâs upcoming debut album âThe Recordâ Stewart will direct videos for, they did simultaneously release three singles from it â â$20â, âEmily Iâm Sorryâ and âTrue Blueâ â last week.
âThe Recordâ is set to arrive on March 31 via Polydor/Interscope. It will mark the trioâs first full-length project, following on from self-titled 2018 EP. In a five-star review of that EP, NME called it âa record that leaves you yearning for moreâ, adding that it âwould be astonishing regardless of the length of time it took to make, but it becomes even more so when you learn these songs were created in a matter of daysâ.
