Amanda Palmer: Cutting Out Labels, Cutting In Fans | SXSW LIVE STUDIO

Take a deep dive into SXSW with our Live Studio Interviews, where conversations go beyond the boundaries of sessions, showcases and screenings.
Singer, songwriter, and Dresden Dolls frontwoman Amanda Palmer has been a trailblazer in the new economy of music sales since her album "Theatre is Evil" was fully funded through Kickstarter donations. She stops into the Live Studio to discuss how crowdfunding empowers artists by changing their audience from record labels, to the fans themselves.

She’s actually stating Facts while showing artists/producers like myself that: We Attain artistic freedom, once we put value+a price on our art! Which is What I call: PRICELESS ARTISTIC FREEDOM

I LOVE the stories behind her songs. I found her through the interviews and discussions about art, money, and vulnerability. Her music absolutely took my breath away. And then i found out that she's married to one of my favourite writers! What a world we live in.

If Patreon and Kickstarters are serving her well, then, other bands that are now only dreaming of the same.... must get out there like Ms. Palmer. I liken her to being the 'Madonna' of her genre, as fluid as she wants it to be. Does she ever turn down an opportunity? Does she ever turn down an interview?? One would highly doubt it.... if.... you happen to take a gander on just TH-cam alone. You will find one of the many, and dare I say hundreds...of interviews this gal has participated in. She not only presents amazingly well, but she is as interesting as hell. This girl has got balls! This is actually one human.... who succeeds in thumbing her nose at shame. Bat out of hell, sashaying her way to whichever destination suits her fancy, and .....manages to do that in a very thoughtful, and thought-provoking way. I'm a new fan....., and so far...the content, the brilliance, the catalog.... of Amanda ## Palmer...runs deep...on her.... 'Coin-Operated'....Yellow Brick.... Road. Open up your wallets, kids. You know.... you want...to help facilitate this extraordinary artist.!!!
