Sept. 3 (UPI) -- British rock band Radiohead announced their first tour in seven years on Wednesday, with plans to visit five European cities at the end of the year.
The tour will include four-night residencies in Madrid; Bologna, Italy; London; Copenhagen, Denmark; and Berlin.
Drummer Philip Selway said the band decided to return to the live stage after gathering together to rehearse last year "just for the hell of it."
"After a seven-year pause, it felt really good to play the songs again and reconnect with a musical identity that has become lodged deep inside all five of us," he said in a statement on the band's Instagram account.
"It also made us want to play some shows together, so we hope you can make it to one of the upcoming dates. For now, it will just be these ones but who knows where this will all lead.
