T!Lt: The Lemonheads

On October 24, 2026 at sPAZIO211 in Turin, The Lemonheads return to the stage led by Evan Dando with that blend of power pop, jangle and folk rock that has marked their trajectory in American alt‑rock. Formed in Boston in 1986, they passed through the punk and college‑rock scenes before refining a more melodic songwriting: It’s a Shame About Ray brought them to a wider audience, helped by their cover of “Mrs. Robinson”; later came Come on Feel the Lemonheads and Car Button Cloth, characterized by bright guitars, crisp choruses and more intimate, darker undertones. Over the years the lineup has changed frequently, but the center of gravity has remained Dando’s pen and voice.

After a recent hiatus to prioritize his health, Dando is back on the road with a tour that reconnects with the band’s community. In Turin you can expect a set that mixes classics and newer material, a few acoustic turns and that balance of punk energy, melodic pop and folk sensibility that defines The Lemonheads. A restrained return, focused on the songs and on a band that plays without frills.
