Tame Impala have been working on a collaboration with Theophilus London for a while under the name Theo Impala.
This weekend the highly anticipated supergroup debuted new tunes on Virgil Abloh’s Beats I Radio Show, where they premiered “Whiplash,” and a cover of Steve Monite’s “Only You.” Frank Ocean and (Sandy) Alex G have also famously covered the Nigerian songwriter’s hit 1984 track.
Earlier this month, Theo Impala premiered new music at a live show at the Peppermint Club in West Hollywood, but no formal release date has been announced yet. Listen to the radio rip of their “Only You” cover here.
