Overview

Thom Yorke is set to perform on his first ever solo tour, showcasing a selection of work from his expansive career. He will take the stage at two of Australia's premier venues: the Sydney Opera House and the Sidney Myer Music Bowl, with a total of two shows at each location.

Known as the principal songwriter and frontman of Radiohead, Thom Yorke boasts a diverse and prolific discography, including three studio albums under his own name, the Atoms For Peace project, original film scores, and more recently, contributions to The Smile. His latest album, "Confidenza," serves as the soundtrack for Domenico Starnone’s novel of the same name and follows his acclaimed score for Luca Guadagnino’s 2018 horror film "Suspiria," which received a GRAMMY nomination for Best Song Written for Visual Media.

Yorke's substantial contributions to film music include original scores for Edward Norton’s "Motherless Brooklyn" and two tracks for the series finale of "Peaky Blinders." Recently, he has also been active with The Smile, a band comprised of Tom Skinner, Jonny Greenwood, and himself, which released their second studio album, "Wall Of Eyes," in January 2023, following their debut "A Light For Attracting Attention" in 2022.
