About this episode

Hicksville, Long Island natives The Lemon Twigs have built a reputation for grand pop songs that harken back to the psychedelia and prog rock of the 1960s and 70s. The lead singles for their forthcoming album, A Dream Is All We Know, promise more of their masterful pastiche. Brothers and bandmates Brian and Michael D'Addario join us live in studio five to perform.
