EXCLUSIVE: Oscar Winner Ryan Bingham's New Song, 'That's How Strong My Love Is'

We're fans of Crazy Heart's Ryan Bingham over here at Movieline, whether we're featuring him in The Verge, investigating his Golden Globe whereabouts, or exposing his Oscar picture photobomb. And so, we're happy to exclusively present the Oscar-winning singer's new song, "That's How Strong My Love Is," along with a link to download it for free.

Bingham's effort is the final contribution for the Levi's Pioneer Sessions campaign, which has asked bands and singers to release free cover songs by the musicians that inspired them. Bingham chose the Otis Redding classic, while other artists who've contributed include fellow Oscar winners The Swell Season, as well as Nas, John Legend and The Roots, Passion Pit, She and Him, The Shins, Raphael Saadiq, Dirty Projectors, Colbie Caillat and Jason Mraz.

Take a listen below -- then head on over to the Levi's site to download the track for free.
