The Genetic Opera aka Darren Bousman, which she recorded in 2011. And from gaining more muffins (fans), she was able to make more and more theatrical tours which gained more and more theatrics tour by tour. The current era is what Emilie is most well known for. She has also released The Opheliac Companion, which provides information and background about the songs on Opheliac. In 2009 she was able to release her autobiography, The Asylum for Wayward Victorian Girls. Laced was a re-release of On a Day, while Unlaced was an all-new collection of instrumental songs done in her newer style. Also released that year was Laced/Unlaced. Later in 2007, she re-released Enchant along with A Bit o' This and That, which was a collection of previously unheard songs, re-mixes and tracks from older EPs. Many of the songs are not written from the perspective of Emilie, but from Ophelia herself, the Lady of Shalott, and others. Much of the album is influenced by Shakespeare, as is made obvious by the title. The songs are mostly about madness and suicide, particularly in water. This album was far darker than Enchant, and a reflection of Emilie's mental state, as this album was released as an agreement with herself that she'd make the album instead of killing herself. This began with the Opheliac EP, followed by full album Opheliac. This was the Enchant era, when Emilie was a faerie.Īfter going through an extremely awful period in her life that resulted in a suicide attempt and institutionalization, she was inspired to move in a different artistic direction, which is the current era. Also contained in this CD was the Enchant Puzzle, which no one has ever solved. In 2003 her first full vocal album was released: Enchant, an album filled with a number of songs inspired by fairy tales. The following year she put out the Chambermaid and By the Sword EPs. Her first album was On a Day., a classical album released in 2000, when she was 20 or 21. What we do know is that she started playing violin at the age of four, a talent that she has continued to this day, and that she voluntarily stayed away from most of the mainstream music communities (both classical and commercial) due to bad experiences and clashes within them: in fact, most of her albums were self-published by her own company. Of Emilie's life, very little is known at the moment. She's self-described as that she sounds " like the best cup of English Breakfast spiked with cyanide and smashed on your antique wallpaper." Her music may be dark and moody, but it is obvious that she loves every minute of performing and she is very devoted to her fans.Emilie Autumn Liddell (22 September 1979- ) is a goth poet, singer/songwriter, violinist, harpsichordist, performance artist and author. Autumn’s theatrics were stunning throughout the 2 hour set and she never broke her character, though she may have been spotted cracking a smile during the acting segments. “One Foot In Front Of The Other”, which closed the show, was one of the best performances of the night. ![]() Shortly after, Veronica chose an audience member who had “never kissed a girl” to come onto the stage to do just that.Īfter that it was back to the music with “Girls Girls Girls”, “We Want Them Young” and “Thank God I’m Pretty”. The scene culminated in a kiss between the two, much to the crowd’s delight. The music stopped for a bit as Autumn and The Bloody Crumpets paused to act out a scene in which Captain Maggot read dialogue and Autumn and The Naughty Veronica followed along. Autumn, who incorporates her time spent in a mental institution into her songs and performance, was delightful as the set continued with songs such as “Take The Pill” and “Time For Tea,” during which cupcakes and tea were literally thrown out into the audience. Autumn strutted onto the stage next, belting out “Fight Like A Girl” as fans waved flags and sang along. Devoted fans-lovingly dubbed ‘plague rats’ by Autumn-eagerly anticipated the appearance of their idol as the stage went dark and smoky and old time music played in the background.įirst to appear were backing singers “The Naughty Veronica” and “Captain Maggot” aka The Bloody Crumpets, winding their way onto the stage as if they were puppets.
