An Interview with Amanda Palmer and Edward Ka-spel at Wave Gotik Treffen 2017

At this year’s Wave Gotik Treffen in Leipzig, the world’s largest festival for Gothic Music and Culture, we perched in one of the cities many parks—and discussed the musical collaboration between Amanda Palmer—and her musical hero and friend Edward Ka-spel of The Legendary Pink Dots.

Order ‘I Can Spin A Rainbow’

The pair recently released the fantastic surreal dreamscape LP I Can Spin A Rainbow, which can be considered some of the best material from both artists illustrious and prolific careers. The music could be described as lullabies from another dimension—something you could imagine Jeanet and Caro including in soundscapes of the film City of Lost Children.

Speaking of film—there are two glorious videos from the LP, that we urge you to watch if you have not done so yet.
