The Lemonheads to release "Varshons" in March 2009
Lemonheads frontman/guitarist Evan Dando posted a message on the band'sblog explaining the delay and forthcoming release of the band's delayed covers album, Varshons. The record had been slated for a September 2008 release:
This most recent Euro tour was a bit difficult . The tour was supposed to coincide
with the release of Varshons . By the time the record got pushed back , it was too
late too cancel . We had to go out for 6 weeks with nothing to promote . Once i got
my attitude together we were half way done . Things started to pick up for me in Milan.
the last two weeks were fantastic.

Guest performances include vocals from actress Liv Tyler on Leonard Cohen's "Hey, That's No Way To Say Goodbye," and model Kate Moss guests on Arling & Cameron's "Dirty Robot."
