Courtney Barnett has covered "Redondo Beach" by the iconic Patti Smith.
This follows a spate of recent covers, which has seen the Australian artist tackle tracks by Boys Next Door, You Am I, and Archie Roach.
The track, originally produced by John Cale and released on Smith's seminal record Horses, was covered by Barnett at a show celebrating Horses' 40th birthday in Melbourne back in October.
Debut LP Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit is out now.
