During the North American tour, David performed some songs that will be included on his next album, currently in production. He explained what can be expected in terms of sound, by comparing it with the first one.
"The second album differs quite a bit from the first album, as with the first album I probably had four songs that I left off of it. The second album is probably four songs from my first run at writing songs plus eight of the newer ones. I think there will be some similarities to the first one, but also a new direction and some new styles and some new lyrical obsessions as well which I hope will make it interesting. All of my songs start with a chord progression that I like and then hearing a melody over that, that I’ll hum and try to figure out some words for what I’m humming. With the second album I brought them earlier to my band rather than just finishing them alone. It was more of a collaborative effort with the new album."
During some of his interviews, Duchovny confirmed new season of "The X-Files."
"We are talking about doing more "The X-Files" soon and then I have a couple of projects that are really in the beginning stages that I don’t have anything really interesting to say about at this time, but I want to do in the next couple years."
"At this point it looks good, but I don’t have anything specific to tell you. But we’re all kind of crouching."
Duchovny recently made headlines criticizing the American president, and suggesting that his politics might inspire a future incarnation of "The X-Files." However, politics can't be the part of the songwriting process.
"Despite all the things I dislike about Trump’s persona and presidency, I also hate the fact that all media, all television, all music — it’s all this political discussion all the time."
Unlike his first venture into the fantastical world of "Twin Peaks," David said he didn’t have to shave his legs for the part, and while he’s mum on the plot, he explained time hasn’t been kind to his role.
"I didn’t," he insisted. "I wore a long skirt but I shaved my legs anyways ... No I didn’t".
"She didn’t age well. I looked in the mirror and I wasn’t happy. It was a little bit of a shock."
