Shame.
The album she's going to be featured on (no word of a solo career yet) is Amanda Palmer's (Dresden Dolls) latest project, Evelyn Evelyn, with Jason Webley.
Now this track honestly perplexes me. According to the article, this ONE track is going to feature Frances, Gerard Way, Andrew W.K, and Weird Al. It also says the track (but it has to mean the album) will include Tegan and Sara, Franz Nicolay, Margaret Cho, Eugene Mirman, and various members of Mindless Self-Indulgence [Twentyfourbit.com].
So although I'm hesitant of Frances, having heard nothing before, this album sounds...pretty goddamn cool. For those of you who have never checked out the Dresden Dolls or Amanda Palmer's solo work, I suggest you do. It's quite good. And those are some pretty rockin' guest performers.
Whether it's all these artists on one track, or it is indeed the album, I suggest you investigate it on March 30th when the album comes out. You can hear three songs on their Myspace. It's sort of different from what I've heard from Palmer in the past, it's quite...showtuney, if I may steal one of the words they use. It reminds me of music from the 20's, with circus music, with elements of old Disney songs. So yes, pretty cool. Different, but at the same time very much fits with what I would expect.
On a pretty much unrelated note, Courtney Love lost custody of Frances. About goddamn time.
