David Duchovny was wearing a T-shirt featuring David Duchovny on it Friday at Joe’s Bar. To be more specific, it was a T-shirt featuring a portrait photo of “The X-Files” and “Californication” star when he was about 10 years old, with “Hell or Highwater” — the name of his debut folk-rock album, released in May — written underneath it. That’s right, Duchovny sings now. He wore the ironic T-shirt to the sound check for his concert later that evening.
You just never know just what you are going to get when it comes to actor/author/producer/director David Duchovny.
Heck, he even surprises himself sometimes.
“My mortal fear — I mean, my shark attack kind of fear – was the idea of singing in public,” Duchovny says during a recent interview. “It was my nightmare scenario.”
David Duchovny visits The Talk to promote his new show Aquarius. Plus he discusses what his kids think of his music album. And he says he's rocking in the new X-Files! ;)

Cowgirl gaze and a sailor's mouth
Legs for days and a home down south
You had the answers no matter they were wrong
You had that come hither, go away, but don’t be gone too long
Gypsy ways and the sideway smile
You bet on forever but got dealt just a while
Slept with your boots on, how I miss that sound
You had the answers no matter they were wrong
You had that come hither, go away, but don’t be gone too long
Gypsy ways and the sideway smile
You bet on forever but got dealt just a while
Slept with your boots on, how I miss that sound
Not even yours now, how the hell could you be mine?
David Duchovny’s new album, Hell or Highwater, is a vanity project of impressively modest proportions. It’s the Wildflower of celebrity midlife crisis dad-rock. Its mediocrity runs so deep that it’s almost kind of beautiful.
Oh, wait, you didn’t know? Yes, David Duchovny makes music now. Honestly I can’t say I’m surprised, considering the 54-year-old actor has long had a somewhat unpredictable streak. Get a load of that mysterious, playful, sometimes totally crazy look in his eyes. Or check out the roles he chooses. If a guy can spend years battling TV aliens on The X-Files only to turn around and revivify his career on Californication as a sleazy, womanizing Bukowski wannabe—and in the mean time stick roles as a pot-smoking “Goat Man” and a transgender FBI agent—then certainly he can pick up a guitar to strum out a few tunes.
Young Hollywood is in the Big Apple to sit down with native New Yorker, the one and only David Duchovny, to get the scoop on his newest television project, NBC's "Aquarius", and find out what it was that drew him to this thriller, set during the Charles Manson murders in the late-'60s. He also talks about how it feels to get into Mulder Mode again for the much-anticipated reboot of "The X Files", plus he discusses his other many creative endeavors and his craziest fan encounter!
Fox Mulder has been keeping busy.
David Duchovny has a decades-spanning IMDB page, so, quite naturally, he's many things to many people. Still, chances are most know the gruff actor in one of two ways: either as Fox Mulder, the incorrigible conspiracy theorist on Fox's nineties sci-fi behemoth The X-Files, or as the womanizing, forever-haphazard-living novelist Hank Moody on Showtime's long-running comedy Californication. Prepare to add another role to the list: Beginning tonight, Duchovny stars as Sergeant Sam Hodiac, a no-nonsense, flattop-sporting, Charles Manson-hunting detective on NBC's new sixties-era drama Aquarius. For the 54-year-old actor, Hodiac was the perfect character to inhabit at this point in his career. "He really encompasses all the things that made both Mulder and Moody and other characters I've done interesting," Duchovny says. "He's a man out of time." Duchovny was affable and forthcoming when Details spoke with him about Aquarius, revisiting The X-Files next month, and his surprise debut as a singer-songwriter.
David Duchovny joins Phillips & Company to talk about his new NBC series “Aquarius”, the return of “The X-Files” to Fox, and his new album “Hell or Highwater”.
David Duchovny is an actor, writer, producer, director, and singer-songwriter. He is best known for playing FBI Agent Fox Mulder on the science-fiction horror drama series “The X-Files” and the alcoholic, drug-abusing, womanizing novelist Hank Moody on the comedy-drama series “Californication”. Since May, he has been starring in the historically-based cop drama “Aquarius” on NBC.
David joins Phillips & Company to talk about his new album “Hell or High Water”, NBC’s “Aquarius”, and the return of Fox’ “X-Files”.
He talks about album Hell or Highwater, actors who became musicians, how he met Keaton Simons mom (Eliza Roberts), his kids favorite shows and scariest X-Files episode.
He talks about new The X-Files which begings shooting on Monday (June 8), new show Aquarius, and album Hell or Highwater.
SUPER NATURAL: Actor David Duchovny suppressed his musical ambitions until a guitar brought out his hidden talents as a singer-songwriter.
For more than two decades now, David Duchovny has been more or less a known quantity. Without a doubt, he’s most famous and respected for his acting work in two long-running TV series: The X-Files, in which he played extraterrestrial-obsessed FBI Special Agent Fox Mulder, and Californication, in which he starred as the dissolute writer Hank Moody. Duchovny has also appeared in a dozen other television shows and more than 30 movies where he often specialized in bringing quirky, off-center characters to life.

The Washington Post’s TV critic Hank Stuever calls it the “Duchovnaissance”.
All of a sudden David Duchovny is everywhere; writing his first book, releasing his debut album, starring in the 60s crime thriller Aquarius and later this month, reprising the role of Fox Mulder when filming starts on the reboot of The X Files.
If Duchovny has his way, he’ll also fit in a visit to Australia into his busy schedule so fans can hear him perform Hell or Highwater live, an album already earning comparisons to Wilco and Tom Petty.
“I want to tour too, I want to come to Australia,” he toldAAA by phone from New York on Friday night, WA time.
David Duchovny explains (in blunt terms) why 'Aquarius' got his attention and why he's exploring other forms of art. But unfortunately, he's staying mum on the whole X-Files reboot.
Flashback to 1967 and the summer of love when thousands of flower children came together and started a social revolution. In Los Angeles, LAPD Detective Sam Hodiak (David Duchovny) is having trouble adjusting to the change in the mores in the world he and the Greatest Generation saved from fascism 20 years previously during World War II.
That is the backdrop for NBC's new summer series Aquarius, premiering May 28th, a work of historical fiction in which Hodiak solves crimes, and while doing so, encounters Charles Manson (Gethin Anthony), who is just beginning to become the Pied Piper and two years later will convince his followers to commit the heinous Tate-LaBianca murders.
NBC's "Aquarius" transports hippies, flower power, free love and a budding psychopath named Charles Manson to prime time.
More significant for network TV watchers, "Aquarius" marks the dawning of the new age of David Duchovny.
The drama, premiering Thursday, is a return to broadcast for the actor who first shot to stardom on Fox with the iconic sci-fi series "The X-Files" and then leaped to cable, spending seven seasons on Showtime's racy "Californication" as a troubled, alcoholic writer grappling with life and family difficulties.
