After enigmatic filmmaker David Lynch stirred up fans by teasing a new project over Memorial Day weekend, the project has been revealed as a new album with Chrystabell, the singer and actor who played FBI agent Tammy Preston in “Twin Peaks: The Return.”

“Ladies and gentlemen. Something is coming along for you to see and hear! And it will be coming along on June 5,” Lynch said in the teaser video.

It turned out the “something for you to see and hear” was a music video for his new album with Chrystabell, “Sacred Memories,” out Aug. 2 on the Sacred Bones label, home to other outré artists including Jim Jarmusch’s SQÜRL as well as Caleb Landry Jones and John Carpenter.

Though Lynch may have disappointed fans that the new “something” wasn’t a movie or TV series, he did direct the “Sublime Eternal Love” video, with slightly eerie flickering images of Chrystabell’s face and an ambient, ethereal sound.

Commenters on X had speculated the announcement could be another season of “Twin Peaks,” a new movie or possibly the TV series known as “Unrecorded Night” or “Wisteria,” a long-rumored project that was dropped during the pandemic.

“’Unrecorded Night’ was a non-‘Twin Peaks’ series that was going to shoot at Netflix but was canceled when the pandemic hit,” Lynch’s producer Sabrina Sutherland explained in a May Q&A with fansite Tulpa Forum. “There’s always a chance we can pick it up again, but David has been enjoying his artwork and music endeavors, so we haven’t gone back to it.”

Lynch’s last major directing project was the reboot “Twin Peaks” series for Showtime in 2017, while his last feature film was “Inland Empire.” He previously directed music videos for acts including Interpol.

The four-time Oscar nominee devotes much of his energy to promoting transcendental meditation, and lends his name to Maharishi International University’s David Lynch Graduate School of Cinematic Arts.
