Evelyn Evelyn

Amanda Palmer is best known as one half of punk cabaret duo Dresden Dolls, and in Evelyn Evelyn, she plays one half of conjoined twins. The official story is that she and Jason Webley “discovered” the spotlight-shy Eva and Lyn Neville—although the black-hair-bobbed "sisters" look suspiciously familiar. Storytelling gimmicks aside, the project plays to Palmer’s love of theatrics: She and Webley each lend a hand (literally) to playing guitar, piano, and accordion to accompany the cutesy tunes from their new self-titled debut, several of which are about the sister they can never escape.
