Live from San Jose’s DIY underground.
Heavy Lemon is a tight-knit crew throwing all-ages shows across San Jose—think Jade Cathay, Chromatic Coffee, and surprise sets by indie, punk, and touring bands you’ll want to brag about discovering early.
On Heavy Lemon Radio Hour, hosts Chris, Scout and Katie play tracks from local favorites and up-and-coming acts, tell behind-the-scenes stories, and preview the next packed lineup. It’s the sound of South Bay’s DIY scene in full bloom.
Tune in Thursdays at 7 PM. Then come to a show. You’ll get it.
