Ed O'Brien says Radiohead will step away for solo work once this tour is over and come back for a little tour3 in 2018. We'll hang up our Radioheads3, he told Edith Bowman on BBC Two's coverage of TRNSMT, the new Glasgow festival the band headlined on Friday.

The A Moon Shaped Pool tour ends next week, at Park HaYarkon in Tel Aviv on 19 July. Thom Yorke is writing his first film score, for Luca Guadagnino's remake of Dario Argento's Suspiria (announced in May). Jonny Greenwood, whose score for Lynne Ramsay's You Were Never Really Here was shown at Cannes in May, is scoring Paul Thomas Anderson's next film.

O'Brien's own break is for a first solo album, which he plans to put out later this year. It's time for everyone to go off and do their own thing for a bit3, he said.
