Radiohead have ‘no plans’ for 2025, says Jonny Greenwood
That’s after his brother Colin confirmed the band had recently reconvened for some “really fun” rehearsals
Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood has said that the band currently have “no plans” for 2025, despite recently rehearsing together.
Last month, bassist and Jonny’s brother, Colin Greenwood, revealed that the band had recently reconvened for some “really fun” rehearsals, six years after their last tour concluded.
“We did some rehearsals about two months ago in London, just to play the old songs,” he revealed at an event promoting his photography book, How To Disappear: A Photographic Portrait of Radiohead. “It was really fun, had a really good time.”
Speaking to NME in a new interview, Jonny was asked about the rehearsals and whether the band were set to tour or release new music next year. He responded: “There are no plans — we’ve lots of individual projects going on at the moment.”
Those individual projects include The Smile – the project of Greenwood, Thom Yorke and Tom Skinner – who released their third album Cutouts this month.
Yorke has also created a new play fusing Shakespeare’s Hamlet and his band’s 2003 album, Hail to the Thief.
Hamlet Hail to the Thief will get its world premiere at the Aviva Studios in Manchester next year, before transferring to the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford-upon-Avon.
Yorke worked on the adaptation with Christine Jones and Steven Hoggett, with the play described as “a dynamic new version of Hamlet where Shakespeare’s words are illuminated by Radiohead’s album Hail to the Thief re-worked by Yorke and performed live by a cast of musicians and actors.”
