U2 drummer Larry Mullen Jr. has just released two new songs, both of which were written for the new documentary Left Behind, which is getting a theatrical release in January.

The songs, "Between The Lines" featuring GAYLE and "One of Us" featuring Welsh singer Donna Lewis, are now available via digital outlets.

Both tunes were co-written by Mullen, who is also a producer on Left Behind. The film tells the story of the New York City mothers who fought to open the city's first public school for dyslexic children. The school, the South Bronx Literacy Academy, opened in September 2023.

Mullen and GAYLE, who teamed to co-write “Between The Lines,” both have a personal connection to the subject matter, as GAYLE and Mullen’s son both have dyslexia.

Left Behind is set to open Jan. 17 for a weeklong engagement at New York City's QUAD Cinema. It will then expand to select theaters nationwide.
