I missed the Laura Stevenson discourse but yes, Stevenson >>>>>>>> Bridgers. Not even close for me.

Not even in the same ballpark. Stevenson has way more depth: lyrically, vocally, musicianship, and just overall talent. And this is from a Bridgers fan. I saw her on the Stranger tour in Atlanta, Seattle, Los Angeles and Phoenix.



Stevenson is on par with gods like Elliott Smith, Emmylou Harris, Jeff Buckley, and Patti Smith.

I'm up to Chelsea now, pretty impressed with this so far. What is Stevenson's best record in your opinion?

Wheel and Big Freeze



Actually Cocksure is pretty underrated. More of a pop-vibe. Check out songs: Out with a Whimper, Torch Song, Ticker Tape, Emily in Half, and Tom Sawyer

Really enjoyed this from start to finish. Smoke Signals and You Missed My Heart are my top picks. Going to check out Wheel from Laura Stevenson next, thanks for the rec.

Ok, so far Laura Stevenson sounds like a full-blown female-version of Jeff Buckley, both vocally and musically, which is a very good thing. But I think comparing her to Phoebe is pretty apples to oranges, at least the limited music I've heard from both so far. I know Phoebe is also influenced by Jeff, but if musically Laura sounds like a female Jeff Buckley, I think Phoebe sounds like a female Sufjan Stevens.

I'm literally not being literal here though, literally.

On some days Wheel is my favourite album of all-time. On all days it's my favourite album by a solo artist.

After many listens this is still a 3.5 for me. Punisher is a vast improvement in every way.

To me it’s better in every way. Songwriting, instrumentation, production, lyrics, vocals.

Yeah I really like this album, but some of the songs on here sound a bit first draft. Punisher is Phoebe refined on all fronts
