The Smile 2024
The Smile

The Smile are an English rock band comprising Thom Yorke (vocals, guitar, bass, keys), Jonny Greenwood (guitar, bass, keys) and Tom Skinner (drums). Critics likened them to Yorke and Greenwood's band Radiohead, with more jazz, krautrock and progressive rock influences and a looser, wilder sound.

The Smile formed in 2018 and worked during the COVID-19 lockdowns in 2020 and 2021. They made their surprise debut in a performance streamed by Glastonbury Festival in May 2021. In early 2022, they released six singles and performed three shows in London, which were livestreamed. In May, the Smile released their debut album, A Light for Attracting Attention, to acclaim. It was produced by Nigel Godrich, Radiohead's long-time producer.
