A new Tom Petty cover for the official soundtrack of Bill Lawrence‘s (Ted Lasso, Shrinking) new Apple TV+ comedy series, Bad Monkey, debuts today—listen to Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit‘s “You’re Gonna Get It” below. The full soundtrack uniquely features covers of some of Petty’s most beloved hits and is set for release on October 4 via WaterTower Music with support from The Petty Estate.
Based on Carl Hiaasen’s New York Times bestselling novel and enduring cult favorite of the same name, the soundtrack to Bad Monkey finds an impressive roster of acclaimed artists putting their personal touches on some of Petty’s greatest hits. Notable contributors include Sharon Van Etten, Weezer, The War on Drugs, Nathaniel Rateliff, Kurt Vile, Charlotte Lawrence—who also appears as an actress in the series—Stephen Marley and many more.
Each week, new episodes will premiere alongside new Petty singles. Renditions by Fitz and The Tantrums (“Even the Losers“), flipturn (“Don’t Do Me Like That“), Eddie Vedder (“Room at the Top“), Larkin Poe (“Runnin’ Down a Dream“) and composer Jamie Jackson (“Mary Jane’s Last Dance“) are out now.
