The Radiohead boys are focusing on their own projects for the time being.

Jonny Greenwood has continued his dive into classical music: Earlier this month he announced that he was launching his own label, Octatonic Records, to issue contemporary classical pieces, and he performed a classical set at the Royal Albert Hall in London. And over the weekend, as Pitchfork points out, Greenwood was on BBC Radio 6 to play some classical selections, including his own pieces, "Miniatures From Water" and "88 (Fast)," and Bach's "Partita No. 2 in D Minor." Hear his appearance, recorded at Maida Vale Studios, at the 1hr34m mark here.

Meanwhile, Radiohead guitarist Ed O'Brien has started to tease his much-awaited debut solo album. Not much is known about it right now, but he did share a very brief clip alongside a link to sign up to a mailing list. You can check that out below.
