Lana Del Rey has dropped her cover of Sublimes laid-back single Doin Time. The singer, who previously teased the cover, takes on late singer Bradley Nowells smooth-talking vocals, adding her signature sultry vibe to the song. The glittering song was produced by Andrew Watt and Happy Perez, and will appear in the upcoming documentary Sublime, which outlines the history of the iconic California band.
Not a day goes by that I dont listen to at least one Sublime song, Del Rey said in a statement. They epitomized the SoCal vibe and made a genre and sound totally their own.
Sublimes Bud Gaugh added, We are so excited to be collaborating with Lana on this. The smoky, sexy, and iconic sound of her voice breathes new life into one of our favorite singles. Troy Dendekker, Nowells widow, noted, Lanas cover of Doin Time is magical and haunting. What an honor to have her talent complement the Sublime legacy.
Sublime was directed by Oscar-winner Bill Guttentag, who previously helmed Twin Towers and You Dont Have to Die. The film premiered at New Yorks Tribeca Film Festival in April.
