Ahead of the release of his second studio album Smooth Big Cat on Friday 12 July via BMG Australia, Dope Lemon aka Angus Stone has unveiled new track Salt & Pepper. Following his set at Splendour in the Grass, Dope Lemon will prowl onto the public stage with the mystical creature of leisure this August in a cloud of mischief and romance.
Salt & Pepper is a slinky stroll through the kaleidoscopic world of Dope Lemon. One of his favourite tracks on the album, Angus muses, ‘It’s a beers around the pool table at midnight tune. Blue moon music. It’s a song for when the eve is about to turn into something special. Kick back and let this one sail you into a good place my friends.”
Directed by award-winning cinematographer Stefan Jose, the video for Salt & Pepper captures Angus behind the wheel of a 1985 Cadillac Limousine as he takes a hazy ride through a psychedelic vortex.
Featuring first single Hey You, Smooth Big Cat was recorded over three months at Belafonte, the studio on his ranch. Angus played every instrument on the record, produced and mixed every song. The new LP is Dope Lemon squeezed to pure juice, distilled to a nectar fit for the gods, sweet on everyone’s lips. A record for wild hearted escapades and fuzzy, melty moments laying back on the rug. Album and tour pre-order bundles are now available at www.dopelemon.com.
It’s been two years since Hounds Tooth, the last Dope Lemon EP, and a full three since Honey Bones, Angus’ instant-classic debut, which amassed over 100 million streams.The release saw Dope Lemon become not just a melting curio of artistic experimentation, but a fully-fledged cultural phenomenon.
Dope Lemon will perform this August at the Enmore Theatre in Sydney, Tivoli in Brisbane, Palais Theatre in Melbourne, HQ in Adelaide and Metropolis in Perth, followed by a 16-date UK and European tour.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
