The Smile have announced 2023 North American tour dates for this summer. Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, and Tom Skinner will kick off the 14-date leg on June 22 in Mexico City before stopping in Florida, North Carolina, New York, Philadelphia, Ohio, and elsewhere. Find the full itinerary below.
To coincide with the news, the Smile have also announced a limited edition live EP titled Europe: Live Recordings 2022. The release will be strictly available on vinyl and is comprised of songs from the band’s debut album, last year’s A Light for Attracting Attention: “The Opposite,” “Thin Thing,” “The Same,” “Waving a White Flag,” and “Free in the Knowledge.” Also included is their own rendition of Yorke’s 2009 solo track “FeelingPulledApartByHorses.”
In recent months, the Smile released the live album The Smile (Live at Montreux Jazz Festival, July 2022) and stopped by the NPR office to play a “Tiny Desk Concert.” Prior to that, they were the musical guests on an episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
