The best cover songs are both an homage and a compass directed to fresh territory. Say Goodbye to Pretty Boy (Brassland) is the solo debut from Bartees Strange and it features his interpretations of songs by the National. Like the (true) fan he is, Strange spans the catalog of the beloved band with deep cuts and well-known favorites. [This episode features “About Today” from Say Goodbye to Pretty Boy in its entirety.]
