About The Lemon Twigs

The Lemon Twigs, comprised of brothers Brian and Michael D'Addario, emerged from Hicksville, New York, with a sound that defied easy categorisation. Bursting onto the scene in the mid-2010s, they captivated audiences with their precocious songwriting, multi-instrumental prowess, and an almost uncanny ability to channel the spirit of classic rock and pop titans like The Beach Boys, The Beatles, and David Bowie. Their debut album, "Do Hollywood," released in 2016, was met with widespread critical acclaim, lauded for its sophisticated arrangements, infectious melodies, and the sheer, unadulterated talent on display from these then-teenage musicians.

Since their debut, The Lemon Twigs have consistently pushed their artistic boundaries. Their subsequent releases, including "Go to School" (2018) and "Songs for the General Public" (2020), have seen them experiment with a broader sonic palette, incorporating elements of synth-pop, disco, and even theatrical flourishes. Yet, at the heart of their music remains an unwavering commitment to crafting impeccably written songs that are both intellectually stimulating and deeply emotive. Their live performances are renowned for their vibrant energy, tight musicianship, and the undeniable chemistry between the brothers, making each gig a truly special occasion.
