Show Notes
<p>In 1988, while most of the music world was fawning over Morrissey’s solo debut, <a href="https://www.kcrw.com/music/shows/bent-by-nature/show-tabs/about-deirdre-odonoghue" data-val="4db9a9b5354241caa28094a2f0b789bb" data-linktype="internal">Deirdre O’Donoghue</a> was all-in on a new record from a lesser-known English band: <strong>The Mighty Lemon Drops</strong>. After years of <a href="https://www.kcrw.com/music/shows/bent-by-nature/the-mighty-lemon-drops" data-val="a39d5e68d51e4d16a3c4548ab91d98ef" data-linktype="internal">support on “SNAP!,”</a> their single “Inside Out” blew up in the U.S., becoming a college rock anthem and MTV staple that launched the band into pop consciousness and amphitheater tours. </p>
<p>The Lemon Drops’ guitarist David Newton and his wife Bekki join us to discuss the strange twists and turns which brought them together, with Deirdre in tow, as the Lemon Drops reached their ascendancy.</p>
