Radiohead Tease Upcoming Tour with Charity Ticket Donation

Radiohead Tour Speculation Grows After Charity Ticket Donation
Excitement is building in the Radiohead fan community as strong indications point toward an impending tour announcement. The band’s management recently donated four tickets to a “Radiohead concert of your choice” for a Los Angeles fire relief auction, hinting that live shows are imminent.
The tickets were listed as a direct donation from the band’s management through an intermediary, “Blueyed Pictures, Inc.,” for a charity auction organized by Palisades High School. The auction, which ended on March 17th, stated that the winning bidder could select a city and date “based on the band’s tour schedule.” This wording strongly suggests that an official announcement regarding upcoming performances is on the horizon.
Adding to the speculation, a source close to the band has informed Resident Advisor that Radiohead has already placed holds on venues in select European cities, with plans to perform a series of residency gigs this autumn.
Further fueling the rumors, all five members of the band recently formed a new Limited Liability Partnership (LLP). This move allows them to operate outside the constraints of a traditional record label model, a possible indicator of forthcoming major projects—whether it be a tour, new music, or both. Radiohead has not released a full-length album since 2016’s A Moon Shaped Pool, though individual members have remained active with various side projects, particularly within the electronic and club music scenes.
Meanwhile, on March 17th, to commemorate the 30th anniversary of The Bends, Radiohead released a curated playlist featuring B-sides and remixes from the iconic album. Additionally, new music from Tall Tales, an upcoming collaborative project between Thom Yorke and producer Mark Pritchard, has been made available.
With all these developments, anticipation is running high among fans, and an official announcement from the band seems only a matter of time.
