    Apr 25 2026

    This week on the Rockonteurs podcast, we welcome a hugely talented artist and (another) bassist to the show, it’s Colin Greenwood of Radiohead.


    Colin is the very definition of a Rockonteur, as he talks about his early influences, the “make or break” early days of his band, a working with Nick Cave. He also talks to Gary and Guy about the recent live dates from Radiohead that were so well received, reminding us all of the unique position Radiohead have created as the best alternative rock act in the world.
