Nervous Cabaret

Nervous Cabaret is a punk cabaret band from Brooklyn New York which formed in 2002. The singer Elyas Khan's stage creation, "Fragmented Devotion To You", an operetta he conceived, wrote, and scored the surrounding music for, debuted at the DUMBO Arts Festival 2001, and was the final stage in the development of his band Nervous Cabaret.[1]

Taking their live shows to Europe, Nervous Cabaret has also performed with Amanda Palmer and Sxip Shirey at live at the Music Hall of Williamsburg [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] and Jil Is Lucky[11] at La Cigale, Paris.[12] Additionally, Nervous Cabaret performed on the same stage with Sonic Youth at Les Escales Festival in Saint-Nazaire, France.[13]

Nervous Cabaret also supported Amanda Palmer on tour at the Bijou Theater in Knoxville Tennessee, as mentioned on p.210 of Tara Prescott and Adrian Drucker's book, "Feminism in the Worlds of Neil Gaiman" (Palmer's husband).[14]

In 2008, Nervous Cabaret were invited to perform at the Louvre.[15]
