The National's Matt Berninger Announces A New Solo Album Get Sunk On 30th May

Get Sunk is a tribute to the infinite, blending hazy memories into a fluid, ever-changing tapestry. Inspired by the sensation of drifting underwater, Matt Berninger reflects on losing his creative voice to the current—only to rediscover it through the struggle to breathe again.

 

Get Sunk is a cathartic inhale, a realization that identity is shaped by countless connections—family, friends, lovers, and even strangers. Through its collaborative and free-flowing nature, Matt Berninger rediscovers his passion, embracing the warmth of shared experience. In sinking into ourselves, we often find we are not alone but swimming alongside others.
