David Duchovny Featured on Takin’ A Walk: Reflecting on Art, Life, and His New Album 'Prince of Pieces'

David Duchovny Doesn't Believe in Peaking Early

On his fourth album, late-blooming songwriting, and why he'd rather have a catch than take a walk

There's a moment near the end of my conversation with David Duchovny where the whole episode quietly reorganizes itself around one image: two gloves, a ball, and a father and son who hadn't had a catch in almost forty years. Reminds me of the story of my dear friend and former boss Mark Chernoff.

But I'm getting ahead of myself. Let's start where we started — with the radio.

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."

David Duchovny’s debut disc, Hell or Highwater, is out May 12.

“High Flying Bird” by Elton John
“Why isn't this one of Elton’s most well-known songs? It kills me. I don't know if I'm the bird or the archer. Or both.”

“Melissa” by The Allman Brothers Band
“I had to marry a girl named Melissa to dedicate it to her. Didn't work out that way.”

Boston Herald Interview: David Duchovny to perform ‘Hell’ of a show

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.
