Amanda Frances – „making out with vampires“ + Exclusive Interview

1. Thank you very much for your time! Before we introduce your new release to our readers – what kind of drink would you recommend to zip on while they listen to your new music

Black coffee. Bitter like your ex.

2. Please give us an update about – new single, new album, tour dates, new videos?!

New single is out now called “making out with vampires”!

I have a TON of music dropping in the next couple months leading up to an EP in the fall which I’m beyond excited about. There is also going to be a music video (really more of a mini film) dropping for each song on the EP, which are being premiered and dropped as music video NFTs starting very very soon.

And lastly, I recently did my genesis NFT drop with decent.xyz for my upcoming EP using an experimental new model – you can check out the drop here: https://beta.decent.xyz/amanda- frances/attachment-theory

3. Name 5 things we all should know about you as an artist?!

1. Yes, that’s my natural hair color.
2. Yes, I have been to therapy for all the shit I write about.
3. Lyrics over everything.
4. I believe in taking risks – in art and in life.
5. I think Music NFTs are one of the best things to ever happen for independent artists.

4. What fashion style or brand would best describe your music?

Honestly I can’t think of a fashion brand that fully encompasses my sound and vibe, so I’m just going to have to start my own.

5. Tell us more about your songs! Topics! Message!?

Learning what love is, isn’t, should, and shouldn’t be. Living with passion. Taking risks. Giving a metaphorical (and sometimes literal) middle finger to the people who don’t treat you how you ought to be treated.

6. Beside music, do you have any special talents?

I’m a damn good cook. I also direct and edit my own (and other artists’) music videos.

7. Being on stage feels like….!

Connection.

8. How did you learn to sing/ to write/ to play??

Too many emotions. Not enough outlets. Enter songwriting.

Also took piano, voice, and guitar lessons since I was a kid.

9. A question you’d like to answer, but never been asked in an interview before?! + Answer pls

Q: “What’s your favorite lyric in your new single?” A: “it must really suck to be allergic to the daylight”
