Because the world can occasionally be a wonderful place to live and things can sometimes go right, David Lynch, the legendary director behind iconic pop culture staples like Twin Peaks and Blue Velvet is hosting his own music festival.
As Consequence of Sound reports, David Lynch’s Festival of Disruption will kick off this October at The Theatre at Ace Hotel in Los Angeles and as you may have guessed, the lineup of performers is something truly, well, Lynchian.
The Festival of Disruption will include appearances from none other than Led Zeppelin frontman Robert Plant and his Sensational Shape Shifters, as well as St Vincent, Questlove, and Rhye, and Sky Ferreira and Xiu Xiu, who will be performing music from Twin Peaks.
Stars of Blue Velvet and the upcoming Twin Peaks continuation Kyle MacLachlan and Laura Dern will give talks during the festival, as well as comedy legend Mel Brooks, and Blondie’s Debbie Harry and Chris Stein.
There’ll also be screenings of rare Lynch shorts and his classic features, as well as daily Transcendental Meditation sessions. If we didn’t know any better, we’d say that sounds like a Lynch film unto itself, which is so meta it belongs in a Lynch film…
