Radiohead, who have largely been inactive in recent years, have sparked speculation by forming a new limited liability partnership called RHEUK25 LLP. While the purpose of this business move remains under wraps, past instances of the band creating LLPs have often signaled upcoming projects. One astute commenter on Stereogum suggested that RHEUK25 could stand for “Radiohead Europe UK 25,” hinting at a potential 2025 tour.
The rumors gained traction when Resident Advisor reported on a recent fire relief auction held by Palisades High School in Los Angeles. Among the auction items was a unique offer from Radiohead’s management, operating under the pseudonym “Blueyed Pictures, Inc.” The prize? Four tickets to any Radiohead concert of the winner’s choosing. Notably, the listing mentioned that the choice would be based on the band’s tour schedule — a strong indication that live shows are on the horizon.
Adding further credibility, an anonymous source close to the band revealed to Resident Advisor that Radiohead has reserved venues in select European cities for a series of residency performances this fall.
While official announcements remain elusive, Radiohead members have kept busy with other projects, most notably Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood’s band, the Smile. Still, bassist Colin Greenwood did mention last September that the band had convened for rehearsals where they played older tracks and enjoyed themselves.
A 2025 tour would align perfectly with a significant milestone: the 30th anniversary of their iconic sophomore album, ‘The Bends’. To mark the occasion, the band recently shared a throwback video of Yorke’s solo performance in Toronto from March 28, 1995, found on an old VHS tape.
“We found this VHS tape of Thom performing,” they wrote, sparking curiosity about what other archival treasures might emerge. With such nostalgic energy in the air, perhaps an official tour announcement is just around the corner.
Radiohead’s most recent UK tour occurred in 2017, following the release of their ninth studio album, ‘A Moon Shaped Pool’. The band performed a series of shows across Europe, including several dates in the United Kingdom. Notably, they headlined the Glastonbury Festival on June 23, 2017, delivering a critically acclaimed performance.
In 2018, while Radiohead did not tour the UK, frontman Thom Yorke embarked on a solo European tour. This tour featured three UK dates: Usher Hall, Edinburgh, Roundhouse, London and Palace Theatre, Manchester.
