Thom Yorke has postponed the U.S. leg of his “Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes Tour,” due to restrictions put in place to minimize the spread of [coronavirus] (COVID-19). Yorke was one of the many artists set to play the 2020 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in April. He will now be performing at Coachella this fall, with the show scheduled to take place on October 9, 10 and 11 and October 16, 17 and 18 of 2020.
In a post, Yorke apologized to fans stating, “Due to restrictions put in place to minimise the spread of COVID-19, we regret that the North American leg of the Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes tour is postponed. Ticket holders, please standby for information on a new routing for later this year. Apologies for the inconvenience.”
Yorke who released his solo album, Anima last year, will also perform at the Roskilde Festival which takes place June 27 to July 6 in Roskilde, Denmark. Bands set to perform at the festival include, Faith No More, alternative hip hop artist Tyler, The Creator, Taylor Swift, Anderson .Paak, Kacey Musgraves, Anna Meredith, Angel Olsen, Old Man Gloom, Young Thug, Cage The Elephant, Deftones, Mura Masa, and Cate Le Bon.
In an mxdwn.com article, Yorke’s recent album Anima is described as a celebration of what he does best. Anima is, at its core, an electronic album, in the gentlest of ways, with qualities that only Yorke can combine so effortlessly, and is a style that only he has developed so well. The album is driven by synthesisers and electronic rhythms, as well as Yorke’s tingling vocals.
