Flaming Lips member Steven Drozd’s teenage daughter has been found after she went missing when the band performed in Seattle.

The Seattle Police Department (SPD) confirmed via X she “has been found and is safe.”

“Thanks for everyone’s help getting her back to her family,” wrote SPD.

Flaming Lips opened for the popular band Weezer at Climate Pledge Arena Friday night. The arena is located near the Space Needle, which is the area where Drozd’s daughter was last seen when she was reported missing.

Drozd posted on X, stating she was last seen at the same time on the monorail. The Flaming Lips also posted on X, saying she was possibly headed downtown.

The next day, police confirmed she had been found.
