The Lemon Twigs experienced a full on breakthrough last year with the release of their debut album Do Hollywood, which was released via 4AD Records. Led by the teenage duo of brothers Brian and Michael D’Addario, the groups success continues to spill over into 2017 with sold out UK tour, the band recently performed in New York for a sold out performance at Bowery Ballroom on February 21.
Considering that the band (which also features Danny Ayala on keys and Megan Zeankowski on bass) are still teenagers, all that they’ve already accomplished in quite an amazing feat (not to mention both brothers were child actors growing up). The album is a wonderful collection of various sounds and influenced from classic rock, giving their own modern spin, with plenty of finesse and energy.
The Lemon Twigs’ Brian and Michael D’Addario grew up in a musical household while also acting in movies and on Broadway. Now, their theatrical, ’60s-inspired pop is getting noticed by everyone from Quest Love to Elton John. Here’s their performance of “How Lucky Am I?” from their album, “Do Hollywood.”
This was felt throughout their recent live performance at Bowery, which began with Brian playing guitar and singing his songs, while Michael holds down the drums (and constantly twirling the sticks between his fingers), and then sees them trading spaces after the beautiful centerpiece ballad “How Lucky Am I?,” where it becomes Michael’s turn to lead the way.
