The Lemonheads frontman Evan Dando has been accused of sending unwanted sexual videos to a woman on social media.

In a report by the Substack page The Underground Bunker, the woman says that Dando messaged her videos of him masturbating.

A statement regarding the allegations to Variety, confirmed to ABC Audio by a rep for The Lemonheads, reads, "Evan Dando has long struggled with mental health issues dating back to his childhood. He's been admitted to a local hospital where he's receiving comprehensive help from experienced doctors and mental health professionals."

Dando released a memoir, Rumors of My Demise, in 2025, along with a new Lemonheads album, Love Chant, marking the band's first collection of original material in nearly 20 years.
