Radiohead High and Dry Live Performance at Later... with Jools Holland

Venue: Lupo's Heartbreak Hotel Location: Providence, Rhode Island, United States Date: May 27, 1995

In May 1995, when Radiohead performed live at Lupo's Heartbreak Hotel, they were riding the wave of their critically acclaimed album 'The Bends.' Released just a few months earlier in March, this album marked a significant evolution in their sound, moving towards a more emotive and layered rock style. The performance captured in this video showcases their hit 'High and Dry,' reflecting the band's deepening introspection and thematic maturity. Interestingly, 'The Bends' helped elevate Radiohead from a cult band to a mainstream presence, paving the way for their later groundbreaking albums. At this moment in their career, they were gaining traction in the music scene, and this performance exemplified their raw energy and passion that were integral to their early identity.
