Tom Waits, Iggy Pop, Amanda Palmer for David Lynch’s meditation compilation

Alanis Morissette, Ben Folds, Moby also contribute to new release

Tom Waits, Iggy Pop and Amanda Palmer are among the artists who have contributed to a compilation to raise money for the David Lynch Foundation.

Lynch‘s foundation looks to promote the use of transcendental meditation, focusing especially on using the technique in schools, prisons, homeless shelters and the army. A host of rock, indie, folk and hip hop artists have contributed to the compilation, which is titled ‘Download For Good: Music That Changed The World Volume 1’.

Speaking about the project, Amanda Palmer said it was important to spread the word about meditation, saying: “We’re trying to spread the word of meditation to younger people. I think it’s one of those things that will hopefully just make the world a more peaceful place fundamentally instead of just trying to undo all the damage.”

She also praised David Lynch for setting up the foundation and added that she believes the Eraserhead/Mullholland Drive director is “the shit”.
