Fans and stans of musician Phoebe Bridgers refer to themselves as Pharbz. As Bridgers's star rose in the late 2010s and early 2020s, Pharbz became more prominent on social media, where they professed their love for Bridgers and her music.
For those not in the know, Phoebe Bridgers is an indie singer-songwriter and guitarist whose music often discusses strained relationships, depression, death, and trauma. As one Twitter user is famous for saying, "Taylor Swift is just Phoebe Bridgers for people whose parents still love each other." Bridgers's music has become popular among millennials and zoomers, perhaps because they also see the world falling apart around them.
On February 6, 2021, Bridgers appeared as a musical guest on Saturday Night Live, and Pharbz around the world thrilled as Bridgers attempted to destroy her guitar after performing the song I Know the End.
