Formed in Oklahoma City, OK in 1983, The Flaming Lips have since become one of the most iconic, influential, unpredictable, and vital forces in American alternative rock music.
The band has garnered three GRAMMY® Awards, a Tony nomination, and an RIAA Gold-certified Record for Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots. Q Magazine named them one of the “50 Bands to See Before You Die.”
The band has made countless late night television appearances, appeared in a Super Bowl commercial, contributed to countless iconic film soundtracks, and collaborated with the likes of Miley Cyrus, Chris Martin, Kacey Musgraves, Yoko Ono, Tame Impala, and many more. They have set countless records, broken world records, created spectacular interactive audio/visual events now regarded as legendary.
Frontman Wayne Coyne has been recognized for works of art that graced many LIPS album covers along with his traveling art exhibit “The King’s Mouth,” an audiovisual art installation that has been featured in many contemporary art museums around the US. The band’s latest LP, American Head, marks a return to a more melodic and song-oriented body of work and has critically been lauded as their best work in years placing on several Year End/Best Of lists around the world.
The LIPS most commercially successful LP, Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, recently received the box set reissue treatment with a 20th Anniversary edition containing previously unheard demos, unreleased songs, and live recordings. The LP’s most famous song (and The Official State Rock Song for the state of Oklahoma) “Do You Realize??” was covered by none other than Willie Nelson on his LP Last Leaf On The Tree.
Even after a combination of 22 studio recordings, 16 singles, 11 compilations, 11 EP’s and 11 self-released experimental collaborative oddities released in various forms, quantities and unique mediums, The Flaming Lips remain in a creative apex that has no bounds. To that end, they have become an American Treasure and created a genre all to themselves.
