Evelyn Evelyn (album)


The Evelyn Evelyn LP is the debut album by Evelyn Evelyn. Like their debut EP 7" vinyl, Elephant Elephant, it is produced and presented by Amanda Palmer and Jason Webley. It was released on March 30, 2010.
The artwork as well as a brand-new song were debuted on the band's MySpace on December 8, 2009, shortly before the twins began using their Twitter and Facebook.
A worldwide tour/stage presentation in support of the album was planned for the spring and summer of 2010, including stops in New York City and London.
One of the tracks from the album, "My Space", includes guest vocals from Kim and Zoe Boekbinder, Margaret Cho, Corn Mo, Morningwood vocalist Chantal Claret, Frances Bean Cobain, Neil Gaiman, Ethan Gold, Ari Gold, Eugene Mirman, Franz Nicolay, Reverend Peyton, Tegan and Sara, Soko, Mindless Self Indulgence songwriter/vocalist Jimmy Urine, Kirsten Vangsness, Andrew W.K., My Chemical Romance vocalist Gerard Way, and "Weird Al" Yankovic. In a recent blog post, Palmer had this to say of the guest vocalists:
