Biography by Heather Phares for ALLMUSIC
There are other artists with the same name:
2) An acoustic blues guitarist and songwriter from San Luis Obispo, CA, United States.
3) A Saxophonist born in Los Angeles, CA, United States, currently living in Greece.
4) A jazz musician born in Signal Hill, CA, United States.
2) A native of Southern California, David Lynch grew up near the beach immersed in the surf culture.
He majored in Math at the University of California Santa Barbara and spent a lot of his time in "The Pit" (the audio section of the film department), multi-tracking original songs on quarter inch tape. This led him to a successful career in post-production sound, for which he has already earned an Emmy and 2 Golden Reel awards. He currently works for Warner Bros.
Before settling down with his wife and kids in San Luis Obispo, California, Lynch spent six weeks in Austin, Texas and six weeks in Nashville, Tennessee, while David went after the self imposed goal of 100 live shows.
The new album “DOZEN” by David Lynch and Friends features the fantastic Dobro work of Frank Duncan, and the outstanding Mandolin stylings of Mark Travis. Lighter and more accessible than “Good Wood” (his inspired release of 2001) or “David Lynch” (his self-titled release of 1996), the extra instrumentation gives the brilliant song writing some “get up and go.”
3) David Lynch (born in 1961 in Los Angeles, California, United States) is one of the most respected and accomplished musicians on the contemporary Greek music scene today. Though obviously not of Greek descent, the unique musical language he has developed by submerging his own expressive idiom into that of the Greek musical experience has earned him the reputation as being a musician of extraordinary sensitivity and versatility.
Of Irish and Eastern European ancestry, David was born and raised in Los Angeles. He studied jazz music with James Moody, Charles Lloyd, Ralph Bowen and John Coltrane associate, Garvin Buschell. After receiving various music awards and scholarships, David continued his studies at Dick Grove Music Workshops and began his professional career playing in numerous clubs, studios and with a variety of big bands.
At age 21, his need and desire to broaden his musical and personal horizons brought him to Europe. After an extended period of traveling he settled in Athens, where the environment seemed right for introspection and exploration.
David's insatiable quest for new and creative forms of expression quickly brought him in contact with some of Greece's most outstanding musicians, writers and singers from all parts of the country and from different traditions. David, since, has played on hundreds of albums, numerous movie soundtracks, and has co-founded several bands including The Missing Lynch, Faros, Trio, The David Lynch Project, Iskra, and Human Touch (along with Stavros Lantsias and Yiotis Kiourtsoglou have internationally released recordings).
He has also written music for film, theatre, radio, television and dance. He's played with Arturo Sandoval, Trilok Gurtu, Arild Anderson, Milcho Leviev, Marcus Stockhausen, The Temptations, Barry White and others. Of major importance in David's musical journey was his collaboration with the late traditional clarinettist, Vassilis Soukas. This experience, and its lasting influence, was the crossroad leading David deeper into his own spirit of "Greekness" and his internal "world music".
As a solo artist, David has released three CDs, "Lit'l Song", "Music With a View", and "Wandering Home". The latter featured renowned Irish uilleann piper Davy Spillane and was recorded live at the Athens Concert Hall.
In 2003, along with cellist/multi-instrumentalist Yiorgos Kaloudis, David co-founded the duet "Faros", an innovative duo which creates on-the-spot loops and spontaneous in-depth arrangements. One of David's latest projects of pride was the re-working of the music of the late-great innovator, Manos Hatzidakis. The recording is expected to be released in 2007 with Hatzidakis protege Elly Paspala and guest Blaine Reinenger (Raining Pleasure). David's most recent endeavor is the band "The Missing Lynch" where he appears as singer/songwriter.

The lyrics to David Lynch's song Noah's Ark are fairly simple and repetitive, but they have a haunting quality that suggests deeper meaning. The singer says that they know a song, and repeats that phrase several times, adding emphasis each time. They then say that this song is for singing on a dark night, which implies that it's meant to provide comfort or solace in a time of darkness. The singer then repeats that the song is "of love" multiple times.
At first glance, it might seem like this song is a bit vague or generic, but Lynch is known for his abstract and surreal imagery, and these lyrics fit right in with that aesthetic. The song could be interpreted in many ways - perhaps it's a love song to someone who has been lost or who is far away, or maybe it's a broader expression of love for humanity or the world as a whole. The repetition of the phrase "I know a song" could also be interpreted as a sort of mantra, meant to focus the mind and provide a sense of grounding in difficult times.
Another interesting aspect of this song is the use of repetition. Lynch is a master of using repetition to create a sense of unease or disorientation, and in this song it's clear that the repetition is intentional and meant to enhance the dreamlike quality of the lyrics. Additionally, the fact that the song is called "Noah's Ark" could be a reference to the Biblical story of the flood, which has been interpreted in many ways over the years, but often represents a sort of rebirth or renewal.
Overall, the lyrics to David Lynch's "Noah's Ark" are sparse but evocative, and leave a lot of room for interpretation. The repetition, focus on love, and surreal imagery all contribute to the song's haunting quality and make it a fitting addition to Lynch's body of work.

I am being honest.... I love this album.

I really like the whole album. "Pinky's Dream" is right behind this song as the best, for me.
SSTMKS
Fantastic album. Thanks for uploading.

A great track to change the reality sound, for the cold and dark emptiness of dawn.

I imagine myself in my home made spaceship, just big enough for me and my dog.
We're going out for a spin for the very first time. We're leaving earth and just passed the strathosphere when suddenly 'Noah's Ark' comes out of the 4,5W speakers and fills our tiny cockpit.
The sky already turned from cobalt blue to black, we can clearly see the stars. They look closer now, I guess my watering eyes have something to do with.
03:50 minutes have passed, I watch the fuel meter and realize I forgot to fill up the fuel tank to the max, we nearly run out of liquid already. There's not enough to return to earth in one piece, let alone getting there alive. The only option left is to go on and reach zero gravity. I look at my dog, his brown eyes full of longing as never before. And we both agree this is it and we don't give a fuck.
