Sturgill Simpson is part of the cast of the current third season of HBO comedy The Righteous Gemstones, playing Marshall, a member of a snakehandlers militia group run by Steve Zahn. On the new episode, Simpson got a spotlight moment, singing a version of Larry Gatlin & The Gatlin Brothers Band‘s 1979 #1 smash, “All the Gold in California.”
In the episode it’s an acapella rendition, but as Stereogum points out, a full-band studio version of the song, credited to Brother Marshall and the Choir of Fire has hit streaming services, and you can listen to that below.
Sturgill Simpson is also in Martin Scorsese’s anticipated new film Killers of the Flower Moon alongside Jason Isbell.
