Radiohead

Radiohead: News, Features & Retrospectives Formed in Oxfordshire in 1985, Radiohead evolved from the angst-driven grunge of their 1993 debut Pablo Honey into one of the most innovative and critically acclaimed bands of the modern era. Led by the haunting falsetto of Thom Yorke and the visionary multi-instrumentalism of Jonny Greenwood, alongside Ed O'Brien, Colin Greenwood, and Philip Selway, the band has consistently pushed the boundaries of what alternative rock can be. Shattering expectations with the cinematic majesty of The Bends and the dystopian art-rock masterpiece OK Computer, Radiohead continually reinvented their sound. Moving seamlessly into electronic experimentation with Kid A and Amnesiac, and later exploring orchestral landscapes on A Moon Shaped Pool, their discography is a masterclass in relentless creative evolution. After a seven-year hiatus from live performance, the legendary quintet triumphantly returned to the stage with a massive 2025 European arena tour. The band remains as artistically restless as ever in 2026; Yorke has been highly involved with the Hamlet Hail to the Thief theatrical production coming to London, while both O'Brien and Jonny Greenwood have continued to expand their sonic horizons with respective solo projects like Blue Morpho and Ranjha.
