Watch the video for the track below.
New York pyschedelic-pop outfit The Lemon Twigs have shared the single ‘My Golden Years’, their first release since their 2023 LP Everything Harmony.
Features shimmering 12 string guitars and soothing Beach Boys-esque harmonies, the band describe the song as being about “making every minute count and living up to your potential."
"In that sense I think that people like Mark Ruffalo or people who hike might like the song," they added. "Or it could be good while you’re working out.”
Accompanying the release is a suitably vibrant video, following the duo in their adventures across sunny Los Angeles.

"The "My Golden Years" video is about looking back at the good old days, and the highs and lows of trying to make it as a band,” says director Anthony Navarro.
“We wanted to incorporate situations like being broke and getting kicked out while being playful and humorous about it.
“When you're trying to make it as an artist there's this vulnerability of putting yourself out to constant rejection that can be tough, but the band finds their full peace and freedom in performing in an open field."
Released in May, Everything Harmony was amongst the year's most acclaimed albums.
"New York brothers, Brian and Michael D’Addario, channel their love of 1970s’ music into a sprawling 13-track odyssey, which calls to mind some of the finest musicians of that decade," said Hot Press' John Walshe, in his review of the LP.
