Ep. 75 - The Lemonheads - It's a shame about Ray (with Evan Dando)

Straight outta lockdown! We had the immense pleasure of chatting with 90’s alt-nation rock royalty - the kaleidoscopic, beautiful and gilded-throated Evan Dando, head lemon of the Lemonheads.

Ensconced in his Martha’s Vineyard home, and through an era-appropriate lo-fi phoneline (sorry about that, folks!), everyone’ favourite indoor type generously shared stories about the band’s classic “It’s A Shame About Ray”; the album that found a new sound for the band and ignited their mainstream success.

We also do our thing, slouching into history(from punk rock to GQ), recording, track by track of this slice of sweet and sour, slacker Americana, and what came next for the band and, indeed, the man.
