All My Friends Are In Bar Bands

Amanda Palmer has never been the kind of artist that bows to the status quo. Existing outside the conventions of rock, folk, punk and cabaret, she's been making music that provokes, intrigues and entertains for some 20 years now. Whether it's part of The Dresden Dolls, the Grand Theft Orchestra or under her own name, Palmer has always been creating and performing. It's not come without its controversies, but every setback has allowed her to grow, adapt and evolve. It's lead to her third solo album, , which is her most exhaustive and personal collection yet. In the midst of an extensive Australian tour, Palmer spoke at length about her origins as a child of the 80s and teen of the 90s, before kicking into the 21st century with a ferocity and unbridled ambition.There Will Be No Intermission Amanda will be on tour until the end of February.
