How to Disappear: A Portrait of Radiohead
A 136-page fully-illustrated hardback book
Including 97 behind the scenes photographs of Radiohead, most of which are previously unseen, and a 10,000-word intimate essay by Colin Greenwood on life in Radiohead
Radiohead’s bassist Colin Greenwood is also a photographer and writer. In this, his stunning first book, two decades in the making, he takes us on a journey into the heart of the 21st century’s most influential band, a maverick collective who vastly broadened our musical landscape while they dominated and distorted it. On stage, backstage, in the rehearsal room, behind the scenes, on tour, at work and at play, Greenwood’s photographs and the stories and memories they evoke for him, form an intimate and informal portrait of the musical and cultural iconoclasts as they travel through ‘our middle years: all the joy and doubt and confidence and uncertainty we would oscillate
between’.
‘For years now, I’ve been taking fugitive snaps of my band, Radiohead. I’ve tried to catch out my friends with my small black Yashica T4 Super. On stage and in the rehearsal studio, they are so lost in their own moment of performance that they don’t see me with the camera.’
