After catching the attention of Flaming Lips singer Wayne Coyne at a Calgary concert with her dazzling Parrot costume and passionate singing word-for-word to a David Bowie song, then 10-year-old Nell Smith struck up an unlikely friendship with the band. After sharing music she was recording at home, the band was so impressed they invited the Smith family to Oklahoma to record. Due to COVID-19, the plan was canceled, and instead, Coyne suggested she email him some cover songs. He suggested Nick Cave's "Girl in Amber". Even though the young musician, now 13, was not familiar with Nick Cave, her recording inspired the band to record this 9-track Nick Cave cover album, Where The Viaduct Looms.
