Lee Chestnut, avid Lynch fan and Atlanta radio station music director, added the vocal version to rotation and it quickly became their most-requested song. The Californian musician is also close friends with filmmaker David Lynch, who featured an instrumental version of Isaak’s signature song “Wicked Game” in his 1990 film Wild at Heart. They would remain Isaak’s permanent band throughout his career. It wasn’t until after earning his bachelor’s degree in English and communications in 1981 that he started his first band, the Silvertones (named after the guitar brand). Isaak was a focused student before making music his priority he was class president throughout high school, and graduated as student body president and valedictorian. Isaak has been actively releasing music since 1978, and is known for his rockabilly-inspired style and wide vocal range. Today we celebrate singer-songwriter Chris Isaak, born on this day in 1956.
