Fans present at Thom Yorke’s recent solo concert at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles were treated with a surprising reunion of supergroup Atoms for Peace. Towards the end of the show, Radiohead frontman invited on stage his former AFP bandmates Flea (RHCP) and Joey Waronker (Beck) to perform the song “Atoms for Peace,” featured on Yorke ‘s 2006 solo effort The Eraser.
The trio was also joined by AFP’s keyboardist Nigel Godrich, who is currently touring with Yorke.
Before reuniting Atoms for Peace on stage, Thom Yorke treated the audience by performing several supergroup’s songs including “Amok” and “Truth Ray.”
You can check out the clip from the reunion below.
Atoms for Peace formed in 2009 when Thom Yorke recruited Flea, Nigel Godrich, Joey Waronker and Mauro Refosco to back him up during the live tour for The Eraser. After the tour wrapped up in early 2010, the group decided to spend three days playing together and recording original material. After two years of editing and arranging the records, AFP released their debut album Amok in 2013.
Although the album was a success, reaching No.2 at the US Billboard, the group disbanded after a tour across U.S., Japan, and Europe.
