Band members Brian and Michael D’Addario's own mother Susan Hall, and Todd Rundgren play Shane’s parents. The album also features contributions from Jody Stephens (Big Star) and their father Ronnie D’Addario. The Lemon Twigs are playing a sold-out show tonight at London's Lexington before performing at this weekend's Green Man Festival.
