Barns Courtney has released a cover of the song "Green Door," originally recorded by Jim Lowe in 1956.

As a press release puts it, "Courtney completely transforms the old crooner pop staple into a swaggering modern rock spectacle with wailing vocals and inspired production that makes the new version unmistakably his own."

A preview of the cover was used in the trailer for the 2025 Netflix miniseries Wayward. The full version is out now on digital outlets.

Courtney's most recent album is 2024's Supernatural, which spawned singles in the title track and "Young in America."

You can catch Courtney live on a solo acoustic tour launching in April.
