Golden Globe–winning actor David Duchovny has always been reluctant to limit himself to a single career, making his directorial debut on an episode of the television series that made his name, The X-Files, before moving into feature films with House of D. A bestselling author of literary and graphic fiction, he has also recorded three albums – Hell or Highwater (2015), Every Third Thought (2018) and Gestureland (2021) – and this month embarks on his second European tour. Meanwhile, he is currently appearing on the big screen alongside Meg Ryan in the romantic comedy What Happens Later.

Don’t miss an opportunity to be part of the making of David Duchovny’s exclusive live show documentary this October in Vancouver, BC.
We are excited to announce that we will be filming the performance and behind the scenes moments at The Imperial on October 14th. The live performance documentary will be released in early 2018, stay tuned for more updates!
The Californication actor continues to practice guitar daily and have vocal coaching and recently admitted “while I’ll probably never be a good singer, I can sing.”
Duchovny and his X-Files partner Gillian Anderson will reunite in the coming months to film an 11th season of 10 episodes due to air in late 2017 or early 2018.

As a longtime musician, McCusker said Duchovny is quick learner and a great band leader.
"It's a blast working with David," he said. "He's very comfortable with the band working together as a creative unit, especially since he's relatively new to the music game. It really doesn't feel like you're working with a star at all with David. He's very real."
If David Duchovny’s debut album, “Hell or Highwater,” failed artistically and commercially, he’d have an excuse: not enough time to make it great between writing debut novel “Holy Cow,” which came out in February, and filming NBC’s upcoming Charles Manson miniseries “Aquarius.”
But artistically, “Hell or Highwater,” out May 12, isn’t a failure. It’s actually pretty darn good. Not good for a vanity project, but a legitimately fun and rewarding listen.

Photos & Article: David Duchovny Talks Music with Berklee College Of Music Students
Actor David Duchovny had some good advice for students at Berklee College of music yesterday, where the X-Files star was speaking to a class about his upcoming record, his new band, and how to find the right musicians to play with.
At that point, Duchovny was actually speaking about his acting career, responding to a question from a Berklee student about how he juggles so many projects and paths. But now that Showtime series Californication is in the books and upcoming NBC drama Aquarius has finished filming, Duchovny has shifted his focus to music, and could very well have been talking about his newfound hobby.

Actor David Duchovny, best known for his roles as FBI agent/conspiracist Fox Mulder on “The X Files” and lothario/novelist Hank Moody on “Californication,” will put his acting career on hold next year to release a double album on the Boston label ThinkSay Records. On Thursday, the actor-turned-musician, his producer, Berklee grad Colin Lee, as well as ThinkSay president Brad Davidson, spoke to a class of Berklee students about their collaborative process. “I never expected any of this to happen,” Duchovny said to the classroom of students and photographers, “I’m not a musician. . . . It’s kind of a dream for me.” During the session, Duchovny revealed that he has always had a penchant for poetry, so writing lyrics was a natural next step. When Davidson, a former executive for Warner Bros. and Columbia Records, first heard demos of Duchovny’s songs, he said it had a “[Bob] Dylan-esque, Lou Reed, R.E.M. feel.” “David is really the album we’re focusing on this year,” he said.

DAVID DUCHOVNY IS IN BOSTON THIS WEEK RECORDING HIS NEW ALBUM, ‘HELL OR HIGHWATER’
When it comes to David Duchovny and music, we immediately think back to Catatonia’s mid-’90s post-Britpop hit “Mulder & Scully.” But apparently the X-Files and Californication actor fancies himself a musician in his own right, and will be in Boston this week recording his new album and speaking to students at Berklee College of Music.
We’re told Duchnovy is in town recording his first studio record, titled Hell or Highwater, at Q Division in Somerville. The album is set for March 2015 release via Boston label ThinkSay Records, which last year signed a distribution deal with Caroline. Back in May, ThinkSay posted a teaser clip to one of Duchovny’s songs, “Let It Rain,” which you can preview below.
