More about The Smile
The Smile began as a side project for Radiohead members Thom Yorke (vocals, guitar, bass, keys) and Jonny Greenwood (guitar, bass, keys), in collaboration with Sons of Kemet drummer Tom Skinner.
However, things became serious as the band launched their debut album, titled A Light For Attracting Attention, in May 2022. Produced by Radiohead's longtime producer, Nigel Godrich, they are touring as a full-time band at the moment. Their debut performance was at the Glastonbury Festival in May 2021.
In a statement, Johnny Greenwood said that The Smile originated from his desire to work with Thom Yorke during the COVID-19 lockdown. He said:
"We didn't have much time, but we just wanted to finish some songs together. It's been very stop-start, but it's felt a happy way to make music."
The band released their debut single You Will Never Work in Television Again on streaming platforms on 5 January 2022. Their next single, The Smoke, released on January 27, and it was backed by a video created by director Mark Jenkin. Skrting on the Surface, their third single, became public on March 17, and Pana-vision, their fourth single, was released on April 3 alongside an animated video that featured artwork by Radiohead artist Stanley Donwood.
Their sixth single,Thin Thing, was released on May 9 with a music video, while the the band's debut album launched on May 22. Their international tour was announced soon after.
