The Flaming Lips, Underworld, CHVRCHES and Neneh Cherry are the main acts confirmed for Glasgow’s three-day Playground Festival.

“We have worked hard to bring together a world-class line up of musicians for Playground Festival 2020, and we are delighted to announce CHVRCHES and Neneh Cherry as our Saturday headliner,” founder and organiser Brian Traynor comments.




The Flaming Lips, meanwhile, are set to launch their latest collaborative album on March 13th – this time with Deap Vally. “I was in Raleigh visiting with the creator of the World’s Largest Gummy Bear, and so getting to experience Deap Vally was just one more cool thing of many cool things that were happening to me,” Wayne Coyne has said. “Deap Vally really rocked the mostly all dude crowd that was there to scream to Wolfmother.”

“I met Lindsey that night and we both were glad we met. Deap Vally got my phone number and about a year later hit me up, out of the blue and invited themselves to come to Oklahoma City and jam with us and maybe come up with a couple songs for their “collaboration” album that they were working on.”
