Indie rock bands The Flaming Lips and Modest Mouse will co-headline a summer tour in 2025, which will include a stop at 713 Music Hall in downtown Houston on Wednesday, August 20.

The relatively modest — but still flaming — tour will hit 19 cities over the course of about one month, starting on August 1 in Atlanta, Georgia. In addition to Houston, the bands will play in the Dallas suburb of Irving on August 19.

They'll be joined by special guest Friko on all shows.

The Flaming Lips have been no strangers to Texas in recent years, serving as a supporting act for Weezer during a 2024 tour that came to Austin, Dallas, and Houston, and headlining their own 2023 tour that came to Austin and Dallas.

The band has released 22 albums in their career, most recently American Head in 2020.

Modest Mouse are also recent visitors to the state, visiting Austin and Dallas in 2024 as part of a co-headlining tour with Pixies in which they celebrated the 20th anniversary of their 2004 breakout album, Good News For People Who Love Bad News.

Tickets for the tour go on sale on Friday, March 28 at 10 am, with special artist presales starting on Wednesday, March 26. Visit flaminglips.com and modestmouse.com for more information.
