Ep 91: Ed O'Brien, Radiohead

It's taken Radiohead guitarist Ed O'Brien 30-odd years to release his debut solo album. He tells Greg Cochrane about how fear, confidence and expectation held him back until now. Recorded at the beginning of 2020 – pre-Coronavirus – the guitarist discusses living in Brazil, his admiration for collaborator Laura Marling and respect for the authenticity of Ed Sheeran, Little Simz and Stormzy. Plus, which Radiohead album he thinks is "shit" and why nothing beats 4am in Shrangri-La at Glastonbury Festival.
