Radiohead’s last tour skipped Milwaukee, which is par for the course for the band, but this is a nice consolation prize: Thom Yorke will headline the Riverside Theater on Wednesday, Dec. 5 as part of a just-announced tour with Nigel Godrich (Radiohead’s longtime producer) and visual artist Tarik Barri. The three first toured together in 2015, following the release of Yorke’s second solo album Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes.
According to a press release from Yorke’s camp, this tour will include songs from that album and his solo debut The Eraser, as well as from Atoms For Peace, Yorke’s side project with Godrich.
The opener on this tour is British electronic producer and cellist Oliver Coates, who worked with Radiohead on their latest album A Moon Shaped Pool and has collaborated with Jonny Greenwood on his soundtrack work.
Tickets for the Riverside Theater show are $55 and go on sale Friday, Aug. 17 at 10 a.m. with an eMembers pre-sale beginning at noon on Thursday, Aug. 16.
