June 23, 2025 — After nearly two decades, The Lemonheads, fronted by Evan Dando, are set to release “Love Chant,” their first album of original material since 2006. Scheduled for release on October 24 via Fire Records, the album marks a significant comeback for the alternative rock band.
The lead single, “In the Margin,” offers a glimpse into the band’s refreshed sound. Described by Dando as a “riffy” revenge-themed track, the song reflects the band’s signature blend of melodic hooks and introspective lyrics.
“Love Chant” features collaborations with notable artists such as J Mascis, Juliana Hatfield, Erin Rae, and Nick Saloman of The Bevis Frond. The album was produced by Apollo Nove and includes contributions from co-writers Adam Green and Tom Morgan.
Coinciding with the album release, The Lemonheads will embark on an extensive North American and European tour. The tour kicks off on August 13 in London and concludes on December 20 in Nashville, covering over 50 dates across major cities including New York, Toronto, Barcelona, and Berlin.
In addition to the new album and tour, Evan Dando is set to release a memoir titled “Rumors of My Demise” on October 7, offering fans an intimate look into his life and career.
“Love Chant” will be available in various formats, including CD, vinyl LP, cassette, digital download, and streaming. Fans can pre-order the album through The Lemonheads’ official website and other major retailers.
Tickets for the upcoming tour are now on sale, with dates and venues listed on the band’s official website. The tour promises to deliver a mix of classic hits and new material, showcasing The Lemonheads’ enduring appeal and musical evolution.
