The Lemon Twigs are a delightfully idiosyncratic couple of brothers called Brian and Michael D'Addario who brighten up record release schedules every couple of years whenever they return to the pop fray.
Sons of songwriter and multi instrumentalist Michael, they're delightfully quirky, like characters in a Wes Anderson. Fixated with the early Seventies Pop Culture, one of the oddest periods of musical history, latest album Everything Harmony demonstrates everything that's so oddball and appealing about them.
This particular record seems to be a romantic interlude with the toothsome harmonies of Carpenters, The Partridge Family, The Langley Schools Music Project and episodes of The Brady Bunch.
A straight face is kept throughout. The height of professionalism. This is highly niche stuff and it verges on the comedic to such a degree that I really can't imagine what it would be like to witness live, it totters so perilously on the utterly ridiculous, but I really enjoyed my listening experience with it earlier on today.
