Kurt Cobain’s daughter Frances Bean is to make her recorded debut, singing as part of a “gang” on a forthcoming album by Amanda Palmer. Bean will appear on the debut by Evelyn Evelyn, a project by the Dresden Dolls frontwoman and her bandmate Jason Webley.

The Evelyn Evelyn concept is, er, high. Palmer and Webley provide musical accompaniment to a pair of “conjoined twins who … spent their lives trapped in the circus industry”. According to the album’s principal conceit, Lyn and Eva Neville are real people, with a real Twitter account, born in 1985 and sharing “three legs, two arms, two hearts, three lungs and a single liver”. In spite of the gussied-up MySpace page, we suspect Palmer and Webley have been having fun in their dress-up box.

Two Nirvana tracks, Nevermind’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” and a live version of “Lithium,” from their 1992 headlining slot at England’s Reading festival, also join the game’s set list, a first for the seminal band that defined the grunge era. “Kurt Cobain is one of the most recognizable frontmen in rock & roll history,” reads a statement released this morning, “and it’s an honor to have two of Nirvana’s masterpieces included in Guitar Hero 5.”
