Phoebe Bridgers is the latest artist to take part in NPR's Tiny Desk (Home) Concert series, and she performs as the President from a virtual Oval Office.
Bridgers has just provided the best Presidential speech of the year with her three-song set straight from the Oval Office...well, a green screen version of it.
Joined by her trusty bodyguards Marshall Vore on drums and Harrison Whitford on guitar, President Bridgers performs three tracks from her second album Punisher - "Kyoto", "Moon Song" and "I Know The End".
Earlier this week (7 September), Bridgers covered Radiohead's "Fake Plastic Trees" with Arlo Parks for BBC Radio 1's Piano Sessions.
Phoebe Bridgers' Punisher album is out now on Dead Oceans.
