Members of Tame Impala, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, Pond, and Geese were recently spotted jamming together in a Perth recording studio — and yes, the internet is already whispering the words psych rock supergroup.
The moment surfaced via a short clip posted by Geese touring keyboardist Sam Revas, showing Kevin Parker in the studio alongside Geese members Max Bassin and Emily Green, Pond’s Nick Allbrook, Jay Watson, and James Ireland, plus King Gizzard multi-instrumentalist Ambrose Kenny-Smith. No official announcement has been made, no press release has dropped, and no project title exists — but there were bongos involved. That feels important.
The connective tissue here runs deep. Tame Impala’s touring band has long overlapped with Pond’s lineup. Jay Watson and Ambrose Kenny-Smith teamed up for their collaborative LP Ill Times in 2024. Geese opened for King Gizzard during their U.S. tour that same year. In other words, this isn’t some random studio hang — this is a web of musicians who’ve been orbiting each other for years finally converging in one room.
If you’ve followed any of these acts, you know what that could mean. Parker’s pristine, detail-obsessed production. King Gizzard’s anything-goes chaos. Pond’s elastic glam-psych instincts. Geese’s sharp, left-field art rock energy. Blend all that together and you’re looking at something that could either melt speakers or invent a new subgenre entirely.
For now, it’s just a jam session. But the psych world doesn’t usually assemble this many heavy hitters in one Perth studio without something cooking.
