Radiohead raffling off ‘Kid A’ test pressing for Gig Buddies fundraiser

Radiohead are raffling off a test pressing of 2000’s Kid A for charity. They join Slowdive, Mogwai, Frank Turner, IDLES, Florence + The Machine, The National, Fontaines DC, Laura Marling, METZ, Melvins, Billy Nomates, Supergrass, Sharon Van Etten, BEAK>, Thee Oh Sees, Young Fathers and more in donating items to the Gig Buddies Fundraiser Raffle. It was organized by IDLES bassist Adam “Dev” Devonshire, and the description reads, “100% of proceeds from the raffle go to Gig Buddies Bristol and Gig Buddies Cymru, befriending projects that enable and empower people with learning disabilities and/or autistic people to enjoy all the great events going on in Bristol and Wales by pairing them up with new friends with similar interests to attend events with.”

“I have seen the wonderful work that Gig Buddies do,” Dev says. “It has been an honour for me to be working with them. Live music and events give us so much happiness and everyone deserves to have that joy in their lives!”

Raffle tickets are on sale now, and you can see the full list of prizes below.

In addition to the raffle, there’s also a virtual benefit concert streaming on Sunday, June 20, with music from mclusky, Katy J Pearson, Willie J Healey, TV Priest, Fenne Lily, Dogeyed and Wilderman, and stand-up comedy from Stewart Lee, Seann Walsh and Josh Weller. Tickets are on sale now.
