Sean Ono Lennon, James McCartney, and Zak Starkey have released a song with the band Mantra Of The Cosmos. The three are the sons of Beatles members John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and Ringo Starr. The song Rip Off was released on Monday.
It is the second time that Sean Ono Lennon and James McCartney have released music together. In April 2024, their single Primrose Hill was released.
For the new song, they joined Mantra Of The Cosmos. The band consists of Starkey, Oasis bassist Andy Bell, and Happy Mondays members Shaun Ryder and Mark ‘Bez’ Berry. Drummer Starkey shared the song on his Instagram.
In an interview with The Telegraph, Starkey emphasizes that Rip Off is not a Beatles-like song. “No, it’s not like a Beatles song,” he says. “It’s just Mantra Of The Cosmos with them on it. It’s Sean Of The Cosmos and James Of The Cosmos. It’s still my band.”
