The Lemon Twigs Share Stripped-Down Live Performance Of ‘Hog’ Filmed in Midtown, NYC.
Watch Here:
Today, The Lemon Twigs shared a special live performance of ‘Hog’, a song from the group’s third full-length album Songs For The General Public (out now). Filmed in a dance studio off Broadway in New York, Michael D’Addario leads his brother Brian in an impassioned stripped-down rendition of the warped ballad.
Songs For The General Public also features the singles ‘Hell On Wheels’, ‘No One Holds You (Closer Than The One You Haven’t Met)’, ‘Live In Favor Of Tomorrow’, ‘Moon’ and ‘The One’. The D’Addario brothers wrote, recorded and produced the record entirely on tape at their Long Island home studio, Sonora Studios in Los Angeles. Check out the tracks and official videos here.
Brian and Michael D’Addario first emerged as The Lemon Twigs in 2016 with their debut LP Do Hollywood, whose showstopping melodies mined from every era of rock quickly earned fans in Elton John, Questlove, and Jack Antonoff. Go To School, the ambitious 15-track coming-of-age opus, followed in 2018 and solidified the band’s reputation for building grand walls of sound around an audacious concept.
