According to TwentyFourBit, March 30th will mark the release of a collaborative album from Dresden Dolls’ frontwoman Palmer and friend Jason Wembley. The twist? They are performing as conjoined twins. Titled Evelyn Evelyn, the duo already has a European tour scheduled with a full tour of the U.S. expected to follow. If you are wondering just what might this sideshow-inspired act look like, YouTube has answers.
As for Frances Bean Cobain, she will sing backup along with an all-star (kind of) cast that includes badass writer Neil Gaiman, funny man (kind of) “Weird Al” Yankovic, funny man Andrew WK, and, um, My Chemical Romance’s Gerard Way. Tegan and Sara are also on-board the track, titled “My Space”, as is ex-Hold Steady member Franz Nicolay, Margaret Cho, and Eugene Mirman. That sounds like the best top 8 ever!
Only time will tell what Cobain actually sounds like (or if we will be able to hear her over the choir of randoms), but here’s to hoping she takes after Pops. Enjoy a track from Evelyn Evelyn, titled “Have You Seen My Sister Evelyn?”, below!
