Dope Lemon

Dope Lemon is the solo project of Angus Stone, one half of the acclaimed Australian folk duo Angus and Julia Stone. Stepping out on his own, Stone crafted a distinctly different sound under this alias, leaning into hazy, sun-drenched indie rock with heavy shades of psychedelia and laid-back groove. The music draws comparisons to classic rock and golden-era blues influences, filtered through a decidedly contemporary lens that feels both nostalgic and fresh.

Where Angus and Julia Stone trades in delicate, acoustic-leaning folk, Dope Lemon leans looser and more electric, built around warm guitar tones, unhurried rhythms, and a mood that sits somewhere between a late-night drive and a slow Sunday afternoon. The project has earned genuine critical attention for its consistent atmospheric quality and Stone's ability to create music that feels effortlessly immersive.
