Radiohead Offshoot Band The Smile Announce 2022 North American Tour

By Andy Greene

Andy Greene

Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood’s Radiohead side project the Smile have announced dates for their first American tour. It kicks off Nov. 14 at Providence, Rhode Island’s Veteran’s Memorial Auditorium, and wraps up Dec. 21 at Los Angeles’ Shine Auditorium.

The Smile, which also features drummer Tom Skinner, released their debut LP, A Light For Attracting Attention, on May 22. The group came together during the global pandemic when Yorke was unable to complete his solo tour, and he suddenly found himself with a lot of free time.

“The album reflects Yorke’s lockdown anxieties with clever musical backdrops that never obscure the songs,” Rolling Stone ‘s Kory Grow wrote in a review of the album. “As the record uncoils, you can practically hear how the songs become therapy for the musicians as they play around and work through their Covid cabin fever.”

They began an extensive European tour on May 16 in Zagreb, Croatia. The show is built around tunes from A Light For Attracting Attention , but they’ve also played Yorke’s 2009 solo song “Feeling Pulled Apart by Horses” in addition to the new composition “Friend of a Friend.” They also did Joe Jackson’s 1979 New Wave classic “It’s Different for Girls” during a livestream show in January.

Radiohead, meanwhile, have been completely inactive since wrapping up their two-year A Moon Shaped Pool at Philadelphia’s Wells Fargo Center on August 1, 2018. When Rolling Stone spoke to guitarist Ed O’Brien in 2020, he said they had no clear timeline for their next project. “I think that’s the beauty of what we do,” he said. “We’re not trying to fulfill contracts or maintain a lifestyle that requires us to make albums. We want to do it because we’re inspired to do it and that should always be the case. You should be inspired to work with people and make music rather than feel obligated.”

Here are the dates for the Smile’s North American tour.

November 14 – Providence, RI @ Veterans Memorial Auditorium November 16 – Boston, MA @ Roadrunner November 18 – Brooklyn, NY @ Kings Theatre November 20 – New York, NY @ Hammerstein November 23 – Washington, DC @ The Anthem November 25 – Montreal, QC @ MTELUS November 26 – Toronto, ON @ Massey Hall November 28 – Detroit, MI @ Masonic Temple Theatre – November 29 – Milwaukee, WI @ Riverside Theater December 1 – Chicago, IL @ Riviera Theatre December 3 – Nashville, TN @ Ryman Auditorium December 4 – Atlanta, GA @ The Eastern December 6 – New Orleans, LA @ Orpheum Theatre December 8 – Dallas, TX @ The Factory in Deep Ellum December 10 – Denver, CO @ Mission Ballroom December 14 – Portland, OR @ Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall December 16 – Seattle, WA @ WaMu Theater December 18 – San Francisco, CA @ Bill Graham Civic Auditorium December 21 – Los Angeles, CA @ Shrine Auditorium

The Smile reveal North American tour dates

Thom yorke, johnny greenwood, and tom skinner’s supergroup will play their first-ever stateside shows this winter..

Exactly a month ago saw the release of The Smile 's debut album A Light For Attracting Attention . Expectations were high for the project, which brought together Radiohead's Thom Yorke and Johnny Greenwood with Sons of Kemet drummer Tom Skinner (Nigel Godrich, Radiohead's longtime producer, went behind the boards for this project as well.) Still, the LP managed to be a crackling success even in the context of the members' storied careers, and later this year, North American audiences will get the chance to see its songs performed live in concert.

The shows begin on November 14 and run for 19 dates in the United States and Canada. They will follow The Smile's ongoing tour of Europe and the United Kingdom, which began in May and runs until July. Tickets for the USA and Canada shows go on sale to the general public on June 17.

The Smile Announce A Slew Of 2022 North America Tour Dates

While the world hasn’t gotten a new Radiohead album since A Moon Shaped Pool came out in 2016, The Smile’s A Light For Attracting Attention is one of the best albums of 2022 so far . The trio, of Radiohead’s Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood along with drummer Tom Skinner, laid down an excellent guitar-driven collection of tunes like “Thin Thing” and “ You’ll Never Work In Television Again ” that often feel as macabre and paranoid as Radiohead’s classic musings. Produced by Nigel Godrich, it’s a seriously stunning album and more than just a stopgap in the Radiohead canon.

Today, The Smile announced their first tour of North America and all of the dates will be happening before 2022 comes to a close. Their East Coast run begins in mid-November with dates in Providence, Boston, and New York City, before shooting up to Canada, the Midwest and then ending in on the West Coast for dates in Portland, Seattle, Los Angeles, and San Francisco.

Fans across the country will get a chance to experience the band’s new album live and tickets go on sale to the public on Friday, June 17th at thesmileband.com . Check out the full list of tour dates below.

The Smile (ft. Radiohead Members) Announce First North American Tour

The supergroup The Smile — featuring  Radiohead 's Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood and Sons of Kemet's Tom Skinner — has announced their very first North American tour in support of their debut album  A Light for Attracting Attention,  which just came out last month.

The run is set to kick off Nov. 14 in Providence, R.I. and will wrap up in late December in Los Angeles, Calif. According to Setlist.fm , the group has only played a collective total of 20 performances since they debuted in May of 2021 at the Glastonbury Festival in England. While they've played various countries in Europe, this upcoming tour will be their very first time playing in both the U.S. and Canada.

See the full tour schedule below. Tickets go on sale June 17 and can be purchased through The Smile's website .

Greenwood described how The Smile came to fruition in an interview with NME in September, which was while the band was still in its infancy.

"The Smile came about from just wanting to work on music with Thom in lockdown. 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 guitarist said.

At the time, the supergroup hadn't finished their debut album yet, and it was unclear whether or not they planned to tour in support of it.

"But it feels like we now have to start engaging with the outside world, having worked on this stuff alone. That’s the test, when people finally hear it. I’m looking forward to that, as what the outside world makes of you is more than half the reason for doing it," the rocker continued. "I’ve never understood the idea of music for its own sake. I remember bands I like who brought out albums I thought were disappointing. The fear of that is a big one. I’ve not met anyone who claims they don’t think about that stuff.”

Watch The Smile debut ravey new song ‘Don’t Get Me Started’

It is one of the unreleased tracks the band have been playing at their live shows

The Smile have debuted a new song called ‘Don’t Get Me Started’ at their recent live shows. Check out footage of the track below.

• READ MORE: The Smile live in London: a jazz-punk adventure in an entirely new world to Radiohead

The band – comprised of Radiohead ’s Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood alongside Sons Of Kemet drummer Tom Skinner – broke out the unreleased song while on tour across the UK this month.

The dates come in support of their latest album ‘Wall Of Eyes’ , and have seen them break out some new tracks for the audience.

It was at their show in Glasgow last week that Yorke and Co. teased the crowd by giving a new track called ‘Don’t Get Me Started’ its first live rendition.

“ I’m not giving up/Don’t get me started/ I’m not giving up/ Choose someone else ,” Yorke sings in the synth-y, hypnotic intro. “ You don’t get to/ Nothing is truly good/ I feel it inside me/ Don’t pull me backward/ You don’t get to .”

Check out fan-captured footage of the new track being played live in Glasgow below.

Elsewhere at the gig, The Smile broke out seven of the eight songs that appeared on ‘Wall Of Eyes’ including the opening title track and the closing song ‘You Know Me’. Songs from their 2022 debut album ‘A Light For Attracting Attention’ were also featured in the setlist.

After being aired out for the first time in Glasgow, the trio went on to play ‘Don’t Get Me Started’ again in follow-up shows in Birmingham and London. Watch clips from both of those shows below.

The latter of the two gigs was given a four-star review from NME and described as showing the album reaching new heights.

“The Smile manage a rare feat. As they swap instruments and lose themselves, the show feels like a GarageBand jam but without the wankery (and that’s accounting for the dissonant clarinet solos and Greenwood somehow managing to make shredding on a harp look cool),” it read. “You can’t call this self-indulgent when a capacity crowd are stuck in their quicksand funk.”

The London show also included other unreleased tracks being played live: a post-punk song called ‘Colours Fly’, a mellowed-out ‘Instant Psalm’ and its intense counterpart, ‘Zero Sum’.

Ahead of its official release, ‘Wall Of Eyes’ was described by NME as solidifying the group as “one of the finest and most inventive rock bands on the planet right now” .

“On 2022’s ‘A Light For Attracting Attention’ their sonic identity was consolidated, a skittish marriage between wonky electronics and the occasional rock rager. ‘Wall Of Eyes’ is similarly expansive in its vision, but also restrained, carefully selecting moments where the intensity needs upping,” the four-star review read.

The Smile’s UK tour wrapped up with the London show, and in other news about the members, Thom Yorke has recently written the score for the upcoming film Confidenza , by Italian director Daniele Luchetti.

Defending champ Tony Finau knows Houston Open is a whole new tournament

W ith its sponsor change from Cadence Bank to Texas Children’s Hospital, the Houston Open has a beautiful new trophy, too. Tony Finau eyed the gorgeous glass creation that had been placed in front of him and pronounced it very much to his liking. 

“Yeah,” Finau said, “that would be awesome to hold this one as well. It’s nice to be back at a place where you have won.”

Except Finau didn’t just win here in 2022. He dominated, turning a three-way tie for first through 18 holes into an eight-shot bulge with nine to play before comfortably coasting home four swings clear of the field with the lowest aggregate score — a 4-under 264 — in the tournament’s history, which dates to 1946. He played the role of the heavy from start to finish, and fittingly, what they handed him on that November afternoon “was the heaviest trophy I’ve ever held. It was massive … I bet 35 pounds.”

Noting his distance from the field on the leader board when he turned the corner on Sunday, it occurred to him, “ ’Man, this could be the choke job of the century, or I could win by 11. … I could run away with this thing.’ It was kind of a weird feeling. That was uncharted territory. I had never held a lead that high on the Korn Ferry Tour, on the PGA Tour. Maybe the last time was in junior golf, you know?”

This week, of course, the slate couldn’t be cleaner. For starters, while the Memorial Park course might look the same to the untrained eye, it figures to play much differently in the spring than it did in the fall. And Finau, like every golfer, understands that past successes guarantee nothing. No player has repeated in Houston since Vijay Singh in 2004-05, when the Houston Open was in the early years of its Redstone/Golf Club of Houston chapter.

“I just saw my name next to Vijay’s on the winner’s plaque,” he said. “Hopefully, I can add mine to that back-to-back.”  

Defending a title, admitted Finau, whose Houston crown was one of four he’d claimed over a span of 18 starts, requires “a different mindset. Defending any title isn’t easy. I think it definitely can add to the pressure. But I’ve been fortunate to have to try to defend a few over the last couple years. At least I’m starting to become a little bit more familiar with how it feels, and hopefully, I’ll have a nice title defense this week. I have more obligations than I would on a normal week, but I also have great memories on the golf course, so that will help.”

Omens are omens, even bad ones, Finau noted with a smile, pointing out that 16 months ago, he arrived in Houston coming off a missed cut, which also happened at his most recent Tour start, the Valspar.

“Yeah,” he admitted, “I didn’t have the result I wanted (going) into my title defense, so not the best finishes I would have liked. (A week earlier, he had placed a disappointing 45th in the Players Championship.) But I’ve been working hard at my game. I’m as strong as I’ve ever been as far as getting in the gym and doing the work. I know at some point the results will come. I just know sometimes you go through spurts where you just don’t score nearly as well as when you do at other times throughout the season.

“Hopefully this week, I can spark a nice run.”
