Bright Flight is the fourth studio album by American indie rock band Silver Jews, released in 2001.

The Guardian wrote: "Fusing gorgeous, tear-sodden country melodies with lyrics that inspire love and anxiety in equal measure, Bright Flight poetically captures a drunken night spent contemplating suicide while staring at the Nashville skyline.

"[10] The Stranger wrote that "the stories told and the places visited are rich with radiant imagery--not always happy, but encouraging in their pure, honest existence.

"[11] Trouser Press wrote that the album "is not, on the whole, as agreeably encompassing as American Water, it is the work of an artist increasingly able to get to the emotional heart of a song without relying on the crutches of irony and overt cleverness.

"[12] All tracks are written by David Berman, except "Friday Night Fever", written by Blake Mevis, Dean Dillon and Frank DycusMusicians Additional Personnel
