Laura Benanti has released a cover of "Sucker" by the Jonas Brothers. The accompanying music video features footage of her friends, family, loved ones, and young people she connected with via her #SunshineSongs series.

Benanti will donate 100% of her earnings from the recording to Foodcorps.

Benanti shared:


"I've been working on new music for a while and have been so looking forward to releasing it this year. When it became clear to me that my first single would drop during the height of the Corona crisis, the only thing that felt right to me was to turn the release into a charitable endeavor. In keeping with the intention of the #SunshineSongs campaign (to bring light to a dark time) the accompanying video for 'Sucker' is a compilation of how so many of us are spending our time; from quarantine to the frontlines. It is meant to be a love letter to America, especially our first responders and those being of service during this unprecedented time. We are all in this together."
