As promised, The Lemonheads have delivered new music.

The group, which recently announced their first new album in nearly 20 years, has dropped not one but two new songs: “Deep End” and “Sad Cinderella.” The latter song is a cover of a tune by iconic Texas singer/songwriter Townes Van Zandt.

“Deep End” also has an official video, which was filmed in São Paulo, Brazil. During the entirety of the black-and-white clip, frontman Evan Dando continually walks down a sidewalk, while various people and objects pass him by. Occasionally he joins the rest of the band in playing guitar on the song.

“It’s never been so painless making a video,” says Dando. “Everyone working was really great. The endless sidewalk goes really well with the song.”

“Deep End” features guitar from Dinosaur Jr.‘s J Mascis — he appears on a TV screen in the video — and backing vocals from Juliana Hatfield. As for “Sad Cinderella,” it features vocals from Nashville folk-pop artist Erin Rae.

The Lemonheads’ comeback album, Love Chant, will be out in the fall. The band will start a world tour in Australia and New Zealand in May, which will celebrate the anniversaries of their two classic ’90s albums: It’s a Shame About Ray and Come On Feel The Lemonheads. North American dates will be announced soon.
