The Smile have announced the cancellation of their upcoming European tour dates after guitarist Jonny Greenwood was hospitalized for emergency treatment.
The band – a Radiohead offshoot which features Greenwood, Thom Yorke and Tom Skinner – were scheduled to play eight festival and headline shows across August that would have seen them visit Germany, Austria, France, Spain and more.
“A few days ago, Jonny became seriously ill from an infection that needed emergency hospital treatment, some of it in intensive care,” the band’s statement read. “Mercifully he is now out of danger and will soon return home.
“We have been instructed by the medical team in charge of Jonny’s care to cancel all engagements until he has had time to make a full recovery. To that end, The Smile tour of Europe in August is cancelled.”
The band first formed back in 2021, and made their live debut during that year’s Glastonbury festival.
