After returning earlier this year to release her highly-praised sophomore LP 'Grim Town', singer-songwriter Bridie Monds-Watson aka SOAK is back once again to deliver a wonderful new cover.

The new single 'Bloodbuzz Ohio' was originally recorded by The National for their 2010 'High Violet', and sees the frontwoman deliver a warm and stripped-back rendition of the release.

Speaking about her latest offering, she added, "There’s something so special about the imagery the National manages to create within their music and I often catch myself imagining each song as its own movie trailer. I love the manic world this song creates."
