Do Hollywood
Michael and Brian D’Addario welcome you into the ecstatic and wonderfully odd world of The Lemon Twigs. Their debut album is a joyous treasure trove of musical curios, from the baroque surf-pop of opener “I Wanna Prove to You” to “Hi+Lo”’s kaleidoscopic rock opera. “These Words,” meanwhile, is a barmy alt-anthem so fabulous it indulges itself a mid-song xylophone solo. Which almost perfectly sums up this endlessly exciting record.
The Long Island brothers offer up a delightful smorgasbord of weird, fun pop in Do Hollywood.
Teen brothers Brian and Michael D’Addario are all about Queen, Tom Petty, spandex jumpsuits, vintage synths and genuinely great hair
In an age where any era of music is within a second’s grasp, The Lemon Twigs’ reliance on nostalgia feels dated.
The Lemon Twigs (aka brothers Brian and Michael D'Addario) are looking poignantly backwards while moving gracefully forward on their debut record: a love letter to the past and a signpost towards the future.
