"Phoebe, Tony and I — we call ourselves The Trilemma: a dilemma with three outcomes. We lean on each other a lot. She brought in a batch of songs that are truly elevated, as a lyricist and composer. I’d just gotten some new toys before the project — granular synthesizer samplers — so there’s a lot of sound design on the record." ― Ethan Gruska on working with Phoebe Bridgers

Ethan Gruska (born 1989) is a singer-songwriter and producer. He produced Phoebe Bridgers' two studio albums, Stranger in the Alps and Punisher.
