About

The Flaming Lips recently performed a unique Tiny Desk (home) concert where they creatively navigated quarantine restrictions by seemingly isolating from each other in bubbles. The band, known for their psychedelic rock sound, was formed in 1983 in Oklahoma City and currently consists of Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Derek Brown, Matt Duckworth Kirksey, and Tommy McKenzie. Coyne and Drozd have been the consistent core members of the group since 1991. The band's career highlights include albums like "The Soft Bulletin" and "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots," which garnered critical acclaim and Grammy Awards. Their hit single "She Don't Use Jelly" helped them break into the mainstream, and they have been recognized with accolades like a BRIT Award nomination and a spot on Q magazine's "50 Bands to See Before You Die" list in 2002. The Flaming Lips' innovative approach to their Tiny Desk performance, with Coyne famously appearing in a bubble at concerts for over a decade, showcased their enduring creativity and commitment to delivering memorable musical experiences.
