The neo-psychedelic quartet Baby Lemonade formed in Los Angeles, and debuted in 1994 with the six-song Wonderful EP, released on the Sympathy for the Record Industry label. Following the record's release, the band -- comprised of singer/guitarist Rusty Squeezebox, guitarist Mike Randle, bassist Dave Chapple and drummer David "Daddy-O" Green -- accepted an invitation to tour with Arthur Lee in a reunited version of his legendary band Love; a flurry of major label interest followed, but in the end Baby Lemonade remained with Sympathy, for whom they recorded 1996's full-length 68% Pure Imagination. Exploring Music, their first record for the Big Deal label, followed two years later and High Life Suite was released in mid-2000.
from Wikipedia:
Baby Lemonade is a band in the neo-psychedelic genre formed in Los Angeles. Their 1998 album Exploring Music was produced by Darian Sahanaja of The Wondermints. The group was Love founder Arthur Lee's backing band prior to his incarceration, and after his release from prison in 2001 until his death in 2006. As such, they provided the most stable line-up of Love in the band's history. In July 2005 the band were due to perform in the UK with Arthur Lee and the original Love guitarist Johnny Echols. However, when the band got to the airport in LA ready to fly to England, Arthur Lee refused to leave the States. The other members of the band, including Echols, decided to carry on without Lee and played a foreshortened series of gigs under the name "The Love Band". It wasn't until the following year that it was announced that Lee had been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia which was to lead to his death in August 2006.
The name Baby Lemonade comes from a track from Syd Barrett's album Barrett.
