The Lemonheads are heading Down Under — and now, they’re bringing even more shows with them. After demand went off during the pre-sale, new gigs in Melbourne and Fremantle have been added, plus a Sydney venue upgrade to fit more diehards in.

Handsome Tours and Double J are reuniting with Evan Dando and co. this May, celebrating two of the band’s most iconic records — It’s a Shame About Ray (1992) and Come On Feel the Lemonheads (1993) — in full, front to back, no skips.

It’s a rare chance to hear these records played exactly how they were intended, complete with hits like “Tracks like “My Drug Buddy,” “It’s About Time,” “Big Gay Heart,” and the irresistible “Into Your Arms” will be aired in their entirety, played in sequence the way they were meant to be heard. It’s a rare opportunity to relive these records as full bodies of work, rather than just playlist fodder.

In a fun bonus for fans, exclusive copies of a brand-new 12” single will also be available at the merch desk throughout the tour, giving punters a sneak peek into what’s next for the band.

It’s been more than three decades since The Lemonheads first soundtracked a generation of stoners, slackers, lovers, and loners—and judging by how fast these tickets are flying out the door, that influence hasn’t dulled one bit. As Dando once said, “Being in The Lemonheads isn’t a career move. It’s a way of life.”

Tickets are moving fast—don’t miss your chance to get lemonheaded.
