That Darned Amanda Palmer (Dresden Dolls)

As the time for the release of Amanda Palmer's solo release comes closer, she continues to play live shows as well ans has begun a series of videos. According to Amanda "these aren't just normal music videos, they are also threaded-together bits of one long film that works as a whole if viewed from start to finish. as i release these on youtube, the streaming audio for the songs will also be cross-posted on myspace.com/whokilledamandapalmer." The video treatments were written by Amanda along with director Michael Pope. "astronaut" is the first in the series. There will also be a video screening held at the Brattle Theatre in Cambridge Massachusetts on July 25 and 26.

The first single from her solo album Who Killed Amanda Palmer will be shot 8/31 in London.
