Medeski Martin and Wood Also Added to Lineup for Event That Is Part Music Festival, Part Circus at Sea
LOS ANGELES, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 04/14/2005 -- Children of ALL AGES... it was announced today that The Flaming Lips will headline Xingolati (pronounced Zîng-gô-läh-ti) - Groove Cruise of the Pacific. The band is not currently touring and their appearance on Xingolati is one of their only scheduled performances for the year.

"The Flaming Lips take this event to the next level. They capture the excitement and creativity we want to bring onboard the ship," said Neal Turley, co-founder of Who is Guy Grand, the company that is producing Xingolati. "This event is something entirely different and I think they see the vision and the possibilities of a circus at sea. The Lips are not touring right now so this will be one of the band's only performances of 2005."

In addition the cruise will include The Everyone Orchestra featuring Vince Herman (Left Over Salmon), Rob Wasserman (Rat Dog), Joe Craven (David Grisman Quintet), Jamie Masefield (Jazz Mandolin Project) and Jamie Janover (Zilla), conducted by Matt Butler.
