Radiohead’s Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood have announced a new project called the Smile. Joining them in the band are producer Nigel Godrich and drummer Tom Skinner (aka Hello Skinny). The quartet makes its debut today (May 22) at the ticketed Glastonbury livestream event
Live at Worthy Farm. The livestream begins at 7 p.m. BST (2 p.m. Eastern), and the Smile are slated to play at 11 p.m. BST (6 p.m. Eastern).
The Smile take their take from a Ted Hughes poem. According to a press release, they’ll debut new, original music at
Live at Worthy Farm. Glastonbury co-organizer Emily Eavis said in a statement, “We’re truly honoured that Thom and Jonny have chosen our livestream event to premiere their brand new project, The Smile. Sadly, we are all unable to gather together at Worthy Farm, but alongside sets from other wonderful performers, this has all the makings of a special Glastonbury moment and one we can broadcast to the world.”
