The Lemon Twigs are brothers Brian and Michael D'Addario from Hicksville, Long Island, and they sound like two kids who raided a crate of vintage pop and rock records and decided to rebuild the whole thing by hand. Both of them sing, write and play just about everything; on stage they bring in Danny Ayala on keyboards, vocals and bass and Reza Matin on drums, vocals and guitar.
Do Hollywood, their 2016 debut on 4AD, is a giddy, restless rush of power pop, glam rock, art rock and jangle, with "These Words" lurching between sugar and theatrics. Go to School followed in 2018, with its heart pinned to its sleeve, and "Small Victories" is its big, brassy, singalong moment.
They've kept busy since, stacking up six studio albums, a live album and an EP, and working with Weyes Blood and Todd Rundgren along the way.
