Wayne Coyne Announces Mac Demarco and The Flaming Lips Split Cover EP

The Flaming Lips front man Wayne Coyne told fans on social media about plans to release a new split EP with Mac DeMarco. The new music will apparently feature the Flaming Lips covering three Mac DeMarco songs, and “the Mac DeMarco afternoon delight ensemble” will in return cover three of the Lips’ songs.

Besides the new music plans, The Flaming Lips released their 17th studio album Oczy Mlody and the band is currently out on a joint tour with Mac DeMarco later this year
