Radiohead’s Thom Yorke Reveals Side Project Name, Tour Dates

Atoms for Peace feature members of Red Hot Chili Peppers and R.E.M. By Josh Wigler Thom Yorke Photo: Nick Pickles/ WireImage Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke has finally unveiled the name of his new side project: Atoms for Peace. The band’s all-star lineup consists of bassist Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers , drummer Joey Waronker of R.E.M. , Brazilian percussionist Mauro Refosco of Forro in the Dark and Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich. “It has been decided that we call ourselves Atoms for Peace,” Yorke wrote on the official Radiohead Web site . “Hope you like the name. It seemed bleedin’ obvious.” Atoms for Peace will embark on a brief tour in April, beginning with two nights at New York’s Roseland Ballroom on April 5 and 6 and concluding with a performance at the Coachella Festival in Indio, California, on April 18. Tickets for Coachella are currently available for purchase, while tickets for the other dates go on sale next week. In October Yorke assembled the members of Atoms for Peace for a two-night concert event at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles, with the intention of performing tracks from his debut solo album, The Eraser, released in 2006. “Yorke is aggressively reaching for the bottom in his own sound,” The Los Angeles Times wrote of that concert. “It wouldn’t be fair to call this music Radiohead Lite, because it wasn’t light at all. But it was more concentrated and, in some ways, more graspable than that group’s work. By appealing to the lower body, Yorke and his band dictated the audience’s focus in ways that Radiohead’s performances don’t.” “We had too much fun to just leave it there,” Yorke said of the upcoming tour.

Lady Gaga Pays Tribute To Alexander McQueen At Brit Awards

She performs ‘Dance in the Dark’ and ‘Telephone’ as a tribute to late friend and fashion icon. By Jocelyn Vena Lady Gaga performs at the 2010 Brit Awards Photo: Jon Furniss/ Getty Images Lady Gaga might have won all three Brit Awards she was nominated for Tuesday (February 16), but it was her avant-garde tribute and performance to late friend and British fashion icon Alexander McQueen that stole the show. The star took to the stage in all white and sat at her piano before kicking off her performance with an acoustic version of her song “Telephone.” “This is for Alexander McQueen,” she told the crowd. The stage was decked out in white, and perched on a pedestal was a statue of what seemed to be Gaga wearing a piano skirt and the now-famous McQueen lobster-claw heels she wore in her “Bad Romance” video . Gaga Steals the Show at the Brit Awards She then got up from her piano as the disco groove of “Dance in the Dark” boomed throughout the room. In her lace bodysuit and over-the-top bouffant wig, she took to a giant keytar and dazzled the crowd with a techno rendition of the track. She then listed off names of fallen icons like Sylvia Plath and Judy Garland. The pop star arrived to the show dressed in a white dress and the same wig she wore onstage later that night. According to reports, Gaga retooled her whole performance to pay tribute to McQueen at the show. She later tweeted , “Tonight’s performance is inspired by our friend. Mask by Phillip Treacy, Sculpture by Nick Knight, Music by Lady Gaga. We miss you.” Last week, when news broke that McQueen had committed suicide, she tweeted a photo of the two of them as a tribute to her late friend.
