Something is in the water in England. After a summer defined by the Oasis reunion, yet another beloved British rock band is set to return to the live stage: Radiohead. The band—made up of vocalist Thom Yorke, guitarist/keyboardist Jonny Greenwood, guitarist Ed O'Brien, bassist Colin Greenwood, and drummer Phil Selway—have 20 shows on the books, taking place in five cities across Europe: Madrid, Bologna, London, Copenhagen, and Berlin this November and December. They will perform four nights in each city, reports the AP.
Radiohead last performed in 2018, in support of their last album, 2016's A Moon Shaped Pool. It is unclear if the band is preparing a new release of original material, but earlier this month, they did announce a new live album, Hail to the Thief—Live Recordings 2003-2009, arriving Oct. 31. Registration for tickets begins Friday at Radiohead.com and will be open for 72 hours. The regular ticket sale will begin a week later, on Sept. 15.
"Last year, we got together to rehearse, just for the hell of it. After a seven-year pause, it felt really good to play the songs again and reconnect with a musical identity that has become lodged deep inside all five of us," Selway said in a statement. "It also made us want to play some shows together, so we hope you can make it to one of the upcoming dates. For now, it will just be these ones but who knows where this will all lead."
