Cult helmer David Lynch unveils new single “Star Dream Girl”

PanARMENIAN.Net - David Lynch has unveiled new single 'Star Dream Girl', Digital Spy said.

The track is the first official single from the director's upcoming second solo album The Big Dream. It is available now as a double-A side digital single alongside 'Are You Sure'.

Lynch said: "After I moved away from Boise, Idaho, I came back in the summer of '61. Around that time, Jerry Lee Lewis was supposed to play at this big club in the Sagebrush Desert - I think it was called the Miramar. Back then, these big events would catch people's imaginations.

"They would take their motorcycles or hot rods to these remote places to see some star. So we all drove out to this place, but Jerry never showed up and people were really pissed off.

"'Star Dream Girl' has that same kind of charisma. People can't wait to see her and come from miles around."

He added: "The lyrics came to me all at once, but there was no music yet. Then one night, Dean [Hurley] was playing guitar in the studio and I was egging him on when he caught a wave like the surfers out in Hawaii. He was in the tunnel man... and the lyrics married with that ride."

The Big Dream is released on July 16 via Sunday Best/Sacred Bones.

The album had previously been teased with bonus track 'I'm Waiting Here', featuring Lykke Li.

Lynch said that the songwriting of his "modern blues" was similar to that on his 2011 solo debut Crazy Clown Time, adding: "Most of the songs start out as a type of blues jam and then we go sideways from there. What comes out is a hybrid, modernised form of low-down blues."
