Lemonheads Reunite

I never got into the band but Evan and Ben Kweller did a hot diddy together once. Thought I would post this for fans of the band.

Press Release:

LEMONHEADS RE-UNITE, SIGN TO VAGRANT

New Album Due Out Fall 2006

(April 26, 2006) – Vagrant Records is proud to announce that THE
LEMONHEADS have signed to the label. The recently re-formed band is currently in the studio putting the finishing touches on what will be their eighth studio album in a career that spans over two decades.

Singer, songwriter, and guitarist Evan Dando is co-producing the album
with drummer Bill Stevenson (Descendents, Black Flag), and the band is
rounded out with bass player Karl Alvarez (Descendents). NYC-based
Dando self-funded the project and has been recording in Stevenson’s
Colorado studio off and on during the last year.

"The thing I remember most about Vagrant's first year is being locked
up in my apartment, drinking coffee, stuffing 7"’s into envelopes and
listening to It's A Shame About Ray on cassette all day, every day. If
it wasn't for that record, we probably would've left the apartment
eventually and given up the label. Nobody writes songs like Evan Dando,
nobody sings likes him...the new songs are incredible. He is in top
form." -- Rich Egan, Vagrant Records President

One of the most beloved bands of to emerge from the Boston post-punk
scene of the late 80’s, The Lemonheads released three albums on Taang!
before signing to Atlantic Records. They released their breakthrough
album, It’s A Shame About Ray in 1992 and it went on to sell over a
million copies worldwide. “Into Your Arms,” a track from their 1993
disc, Come On Feel The Lemonheads was their first single to hit the
Billboard charts. After the release of Car Button Cloth in 1996 the
band toured extensively - playing festivals worldwide, from Europe and
the UK to South America. Dando took a break from the Lemonheads in the
late 90’s to concentrate on his solo recording. He released Baby I’m
Bored, in 2003.
