Lotta Sea Lice is a collaborative album between Courtney Barnett and Kurt Vile, released on October 13, 2017.

Barnett and Vile announced that they had jammed together and decided to go on a mutual tour on June 7, 2017. They announced the release date and lead single "Over Everything" on August 30.

The album received three out of five stars from AllMusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine, who praised some of the performance and fun of the album but concluded, "As they're both charismatic singers with a way with an elliptical melody, it's pleasant enough, but by the time its 45 minutes wrap up, Lotta Sea Lice feels like a party where the hosts are having a much better time than their guests."

The duo assembled a backing band called The Sea Lice composed of Janet Weiss, Stella Mozgawa, Rob Laakso, and Katie Harkin, with Jen Cloher as an opening act for all dates. The artists donated $1 from every ticket sale to the American Civil Liberties Union.
