Thom Yorke has confirmed that Radiohead side project The Smile have some new music in the works.

The band, which features Yorke, his Radiohead bandmate Johnny Greenwood, and Sons Of Kemet’s Tom Skinner, released their debut album, ‘A Light For Attracting Attention’, in May. In a four-star review, NME‘s Andrew Trendell described it as “showcasing a melodic, more energetic and free-flowing iteration of the Yorke-Greenwood partnership”.

Last month, The Smile performed at Primavera Sound as part of the Barcelona festival’s second weekend. During their set – which Strokes frontman Julian Casablancas called the “best show I’ve seen in years” – they performed a new song called ‘Colours Fly’.

Today (July 10), the band shared a clip of them performing the song at the festival. Yorke then quote tweeted the performance, telling fans that it was a “work in progress” while adding that there are some other new songs in the works.

“New one … work in progress … there are a few ..,” Yorke wrote. You can see his tweet and the clip from the performance below.
