Tomorrow is a Long Time: Chrissie Hynde sings Bob Dylan, a new 90-minute documentary starring the frontwoman of the Pretenders, will air for the first time in the US at 20:00 ET Wednesday on AXS TV.
You can watch the trailer of the movie below.
“There are rules in rock ‘n roll, but there are no rules,” Hynde says in the clip. “My version of rock ‘n’ roll is very different from someone else’s. For me, it was a substitute – to express yourself, to do your own thing and to go against the established. For me personally, there was nothing else. There was no rule. “
The film follows its previously released project, Standing in the Doorway: Chrissie Hynde sings Bob Dylan. Initially he started recording songs as part of a YouTube series started with Pretenders guitarist James Walbourne, inspired by Dylan’s epic “Murder Most Foul” from the 2020 LP Rough and naughty ways.
“They took me out of that dark mood,” Hynde said as he listened to the 17-minute ballad for the first time. As she and Walbourne continued to add their own twists to the pieces, the Dylan Lockdown series evolved into He is standing at the door. “For me, a lot of it is meditation,” he added. “You get a little out of it.”
Directed by Michael Nunn and William Trevitt, Tomorrow is a lot of time includes exclusive performances of all nine LP songs – including “Sweetheart Like You”, which appears in the trailer. The documentary premiered on the British network Sky Arts last May, the day Dylan turned 80.
