The Lemonheads

The Nick Rayns LCR, UEA, 3 Oct 2026


Since they were formed in Boston, Mass, in 1986 by Evan Dando, the family tree of The Lemonheads has had many twisted tentacles and tangential branches, and a host of one-liners etched into its bark.

Anyone could be a Lemonhead but for how long who knows? Leastways they’ll be shoulder-to-shoulder with Evan throwing discordant chords against alt-country-tinged melodies, playing that light and dark card. Evan Dando and The Lemonheads’ arcane adventure continues with ‘Love Chant’.

Sparring with guest guitarists J Mascis from Dinosaur Jr and The Bevis Frond’s Nick Saloman, Evan the songwriter remains gloriously astute. The voice is lower and more brooding but the mood is pin prick sharp and the social commentary as barbed as ever. “The Lemonheads have always been recognised as purveyors of grade-A pop-punk” Record Collector
