Today Damian released his fourth single and official music video, this time for the track ‘She Comes’ shot by Squire Studio on March 16, 2023 and directed by none other than Nick Murphy, the same director for Damian’s recent MGM+ and ITVX mini-series A Spy Among Friends. Location of the music video shoot was Master Shipwright’s Palace in Deptford, London, off the banks of the River Thames. The venue is described as “a peculiar new theatre in Deptford’s secret palace” that is “10 minutes from London Bridge.” View more behind the scenes photos from the video shoot in our Gallery here.

Damian recently shared with Stereo Board,

“She Comes is the first song I wrote for my debut album, so that makes it… my first song (That I’ve shared with the world, at any rate….). It’s about ghosts, and one ghost in particular. The album has hybrid sounds all through it, but this song leans heavily on a folk set up before crescendoing with a jazz feel brought by my brilliant band.”

As for the video: “We hoped to convey the feeling of an abandoned house, of the ghost of the woman that once lived there and a group of friends gathering to celebrate her.”

She Comes

Damian Lewis has released another track from his upcoming debut album. Following ‘Down On The Bowery’ and ‘Makin’ Plans’, the folky ‘She Comes’ finds the musician and Homeland star singing over a piano and lightly fingerpicked acoustic guitar melody. Lewis explained:

“She Comes is the first song I wrote for my debut album, so that makes it… my first song (That I’ve shared with the world, at any rate….). It’s about ghosts, and one ghost in particular. The album has hybrid sounds all through it, but this song leans heavily on a folk set up before crescendoing with a jazz feel brought by my brilliant band.”

Career Change

by Simon Boyle | The Sun | April 12, 2023

Damian Lewis is cementing his move from screen to sound after landing a record deal.

The Homeland actor has secured a contract with Decca Records and will put out his debut album Mission Creep on June 16.

He’s made moves into music in recent years with a series of small live shows and today drops the first single from his record, called ‘Down On The Bowery.’

Damian is said to have channeled his heartache into the album two years after the death of his Peaky Blinders actress wife Helen McCrory.

Talking about writing it, Damian said: “I suddenly had a lot to say. People will judge if it’s any good or not, but for me it felt natural.”

He said he decided to make the album in lockdown having been a regular busker when he was younger.

The A-lister added: “I wanted the album to give a sense of a journey to this point – from busking ’til now.”

Decca also has Jeff Goldblum, who has successfully made the move from movies to music, on its books.

It sounds like Damian is in safe hands.
