David Lynch's promo for Ariana Delawari

David Lynch has directed a new clip to promote The Lion of Panjshir, the debut album by Ariana Delawari that Lynch is releasing on his own label. The clip is a very Lynchian affair indeed, fascinating and tedious and creepy and lovely and funny and scary. That's Lynch narrating the clip himself, and he has this to say about Delawari:

"ARIANA WRITES GREAT SONGS – THEY ARE FILLED WITH FEELINGS AND THOUGHTS FROM HER LIFE – HER LIFE IN HOLLYWOOD AND LIFE IN AFGHANISTAN WHERE HER ROOTS ARE – ANCIENT AND MODERN FLOW TOGETHER HERE – THIS MIXTURE OF CULTURES AND HER MELODIES AND LYRICS CONJURE A GREAT UNIQUE FEELING IN PEOPLE – PEOPLE ARE SURPRISED AND EMOTIONALLY MOVED BY THIS MUSIC — ARIANA'S GOT SOMETHING TO SING ABOUT AND SHE DOES IT REAL WELL – IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DEBUT ALBUM SHE'S MADE."
