Live cover of DUNE theme
September 11, 2015 12:55 PM

Who performed that live cover of the opening music and monologue from David Lynch's DUNE?

I saw this amazing video a few years back someone had recorded at a live concert: a band with a female vocalist performing a variation of the opening music from DUNE as well as the opening monologue (delivered by the Princess Irulan character).

Now I can't remember who it was and it's driving me nuts.

I'm hoping to find the video of it. But without knowing what to Google, searching Dune + cover + theme song + etc. hasn't turned up anything yet. Help!

For some reason I thought it was Lykke Li, but I don't see any evidence of this when I include her in my searches.

Even if the video's been taken down, I remember a bunch of music blogs had entries about it at the time, so those should still be kicking around somewhere...

This was on hype machine a lot. I remember this because I was deep in to said music blogs a few years ago.

I don't know how well that site still works, but it might be a decent place to start.
