Thom Yorke Announces New Solo Band and Two Nights in LA

80s filter

Thom Yorke just announced that he’ll be playing two shows at the Orpheum Theatre in LA this weekend, Oct. 4th and 5th, which is amazing. But the announcement of who his backing band is will probably be the thing that everybody’s talking about today, because he’s got Flea on bass, Mauro Refosco on percussion, Joey Waronker on drums, and producer Nigel Godrich all helping him out with the shows. Lucky Dragons get the opening slot.

Tickets go on sale today.
