Mark Pritchard and Thom Yorke Announce Collaborative Album Tall Tales, Share New Song: Stream
The post Mark Pritchard and Thom Yorke Announce Collaborative Album Tall Tales, Share New Song: Stream appeared first on Consequence.
Mark Pritchard and Thom Yorke are teaming up for a new collaborative album. Tall Tales is the name of their first record as a duo, and it will be released on May 9th via Warp Records. In the meantime, the two Englishmen have dropped a new song titled 'This Conversation is Missing Your Voice,' which you can listen to below.
The chameleonic electronic producer and Radiohead frontman previously collaborated on a track from Pritchard's 2016 album Under the Sun titled 'Beautiful People.' Last month marked their second official collaboration 'Back in the Game,' which Yorke had been performing during concerts throughout 2024.
Along with the album, visual artist Jonathan Zawada (considered an honorary member of the project) has created an accompanying short film to Tall Tales, which has been in development alongside the record for many years, according to a press statement. Both videos for 'Back in the Game' and 'This Conversation is Missing Your Voice' will be included in the full film, plus it will be screened for one-night-only in movie theaters worldwide. Selected theaters and more details are expected to be revealed soon.
'Mark sent me a large file of Mp3s of ideas during lockdown,' Yorke said in a statement. 'There were so many great ones I knew straight away that i had to drop what i was doing. It felt very much that i had not been anywhere like this before both as soon as i put my headphones on and started trying to find the vocals, words and sounds, but also, as it progressed, watching Jonathan respond so freely and spontaneously with all his video and artwork ideas. It was mental, and i feel lucky to have been involved. I am looking forward to this finally coming out, Tall Tales is very important to me. I hope people get it, and get to hear it!'
As of late, Yorke has been focused less on Radiohead and more on side projects, including The Smile, which is rounded out by Radiohead instrumentalist Jonny Greenwood and Sons of Kemet's Tom Skinner. Yorke recently came under fire after a show in Melbourne where he angrily left the stage following a verbal confrontation with a pro-Palestinian protestor.
Pritchard's last full-length was 2018's The Four Worlds, and has released music under several aliases since the '90s including Reload, Link, Harmonic 313, and more. He officially relinquished his stage names in 2013, releasing music solely under his birth name.
Though Pritchard has been signed to Warp since as early as 2005, Tall Tales marks Yorke's first release through the label. Pre-orders for Tall Tales are ongoing. Check out the album artwork and tracklist below.
