In recent years, a few of the Radiohead bandmates have performed as The Smile, a sort of spinoff rock band with a slightly different sound. But rest assured, the original outfit behind Kid A and OK Computer is still very much a thing.
In fact, Radiohead just announced a whole spread of new concerts coming up next year. The only kicker is, all 21 shows will be played overseas.
“Radiohead will play a run of 21 shows next year in Perth, Melbourne and Sydney, Australia, and Saitama, Japan,” reads the caption of the band’s Instagram post on Monday, September 7. “Registration open now via radiohead.com.”
The caption continues to list out the specific dates and venues:
“May 3, 4, 6, 7 – RAC Arena, PerthMay 13, 14, 16, 17, 19, 20 – Rod Laver Arena, MelbourneMay 25, 26, 28, 29, 31, June 1 – Afterpay Arena, SydneyJune 8, 9, 11, 12, 13 – GMO Arena Saitama”
View this post on InstagramOf course, Radiohead has its devoted fanbase, which means Instagram users didn’t hold back in the post’s comments section to voice reservations about how the band is only visiting two countries. “Hey Radiohead ever heard of a place called the US ?” wrote one user, while another person commented, “Hey @radiohead you ever heard of New Zealand? It’s a bit like Australia but good!”
Rolling Stone reports that the band last performed in Australia in 2012, and last headlined Japan in October 2008, on the In Rainbows tour (They also performed there at the Summer Sonic Festival in 2016).
Fellow Artists Continue to Cover Radiohead
Earlier this summer, Vera Blue’s stripped-down cover of Radiohead’s “Creep” for triple j’s Like A Version left listeners emotionally floored, with fans across social media describing the performance as one of the most moving covers they’ve ever heard.
The Australian singer-songwriter pared the 1992 alt-rock staple down to just guitar, piano and vocals, building from a quiet, restrained opening into a soaring falsetto by the final chorus. Find out more here.
