Colin Greenwood on Sky News

Colin Greenwood tells Sky News that touring musicians need visa support services and help with customs after Brexit, and plans made now, because a tour takes at least nine months to put together. Radiohead have accountants and lawyers to deal with the new red tape and the costs of travel and transport. Bands like Radiohead are fortunate, he says; his worry is the bands coming up, the next Radioheads or Marillions, over the next decade. As the presenter puts it, their early years are spent going back and forth across the Channel. Citing Elton John's piece in the Guardian, he points to the £5.8 billion UK music put into the economy in 2019, money that came from years of people learning their craft together.
