Much-loved act The National recorded a session for CBC Radio Show Q, and gave fans a treat by previewing two new tracks. ‘Rylan’ is a slow, anthemic ballad that pulls at the heartstrings ever so slightly, while ‘I Need My Girl’ features some incredibly beautiful acoustic guitar, complementing
Matt Berninger’s gruff vocals. Both songs possess that powerful yet vulnerable quality unique to The National, and we’re desperate to hear the full versions. Watch this space.
