The National frontman Matt Berninger has released a cover of The Velvet Underground’s “Who Loves the Sun” in collaboration with Roseanne Cash.
Berninger and Cash recorded their version for the series Sunny Nights, starring Will Forte and D’Arcy Carden.
“I’ve been a Trent O’Donnell fan for a long time,” Berninger says, referring to the Sunny Nights director. “We became good friends when he cast my brother, Tom, in an episode of his show No Activity, and we’ve had a close, creative bond ever since.”
Berninger adds that he immediately thought of Cash and her husband, producer John Leventhal, when approached about recording the cover.
“We recorded it in their Chelsea brownstone last summer,” Berninger says. “John did most of the work while Rose and I drank chardonnay in the garden in the sun.”
Sunny Nights premieres on Hulu on March 11.
