Radiohead Live Performance of Kid A at Canal+ Studios, Paris
In April 2001, Radiohead was riding high on the creative wave that followed their groundbreaking album ‘Kid A,’ released just six months earlier. During this live performance at Canal+ Studios in Paris, the band showcased tracks from both 'Kid A' and the forthcoming album 'Amnesiac,' which would drop later that summer. This period was pivotal for Radiohead, marking their transition to more experimental sounds and electronic influences, a shift that separated them from their earlier, guitar-driven work. Interestingly, 'Kid A' was a bold departure, famously released without any singles, which led to polarized but passionate reactions from fans and critics alike. This live recording captured a moment when Radiohead was confidently redefining not just their music but also what a band could be in the new millennium. Their performance was both intimate and mesmerizing, perfectly encapsulating the intense atmosphere of their evolving artistry.
