VENUE PRESALE: WEDS 5TH NOV @ 10AM GENERAL SALE: FRI 7TH NOV @ 10AM Since they were formed in Boston, Mass, in 1986 by Evan Dando, the family tree of The Lemonheads has had many twisted tentacles and tangential branches, and a host of one-liners etched into its bark. Anyone could be a Lemonhead but for how long who knows? Leastways they?ll be shoulder-to-shoulder with Evan throwing discordant chords against alt-country-tinged melodies, playing that light and dark card. The Lemonheads? arcane adventure continues with ?Love Chant? set for release later this year. Sparring with guest guitarists J Mascis from Dinosaur Jr and The Bevis Frond?s Nick Saloman, Evan the songwriter remains gloriously astute. The voice is lower and more brooding but the mood is pinprick sharp and the social commentary as barbed as ever.
The Lemonheads, Willy Mason headlines this London gig on Friday, 2 October 2026. Listening before the night helps you decide if the bill matches your taste — expect Rock / Alternative Rock / Pop across the set.
Troxy is one of London's grass-roots venues on GigXchange — the kind of small-capacity room where you can stand close to the band and the bill changes every week. Capacity, age policy and door fee vary per night, so always cross-check with the gig details panel or the venue's own page closer to the date.
Grass-roots gigs in London are intimate by design: most rooms cap below 200, the band is on stage close to the floor, and the support acts often deserve as much attention as the headliner. Arrive within thirty minutes of doors to catch the openers and pick a sightline you're happy with.
Entry hasn't been published — bring £5–£15 cash to be safe, or check the venue's social channels for advance ticketing.
