It takes a village to topple a record. That seems to be the thinking behind the Flaming Lips' efforts to gather an army of musical cohorts to help them take aim at Jay-Z's record for the most live concerts in 24 hours.

As part of a record attempt that will take place over 24 hours during the June 27 O Music Awards, the Lips will try to make it into the Guinness Book of World Records by playing shows in eight different cities.

We can now reveal that they will get some support from an eclectic group of musicians that includes festival favorites Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, modern bluesman Gary Clark Jr., country singer Hunter Hayes, and indie rock acts Givers, New Fumes, Neon Indian, and Grimes.

No word yet on the possibility of a quickly released then subsequently pulled video documenting the show.
