A match made in psych heaven: the Flaming Lips and Tame Impala are to cover each other for a collaborative EP.
The 4-track short player will be vinyl only, sold at their pair’s joint shows during their October and November co-touring stint. It’ll see Wayne Coyne and co taking on ‘Runway, Houses, City, Clouds’ and ‘Elephant’, while Tame Impala will return the favour with ‘Are You a Hypnotist?’ and ‘Silver Trembling Hands’.
Here’s gig poster for their upcoming tour by visual artist Oliver Hibert:
