The Lemon Fog

The Lemon Fog were an American garage rock/psychedelic rock band from Houston, Texas who were active from 1965-1970.

Chris Lyons was auditioning musicians at Clem's Music in Houston for a new band he was forming. Danny Ogg showed up at the store, and Lyons asked him to join the new group, the Pla-Boys. Ogg agreed on condition that the Rip Chords' former bassist Timmy Thorpe, who had just gotten laid off from work, be allowed to join. The Pla-boys performed their first gig at St. Regis College for the Arts. It was there that Ted Eubanks, an avant-garde composer in Houston'
