Thomas Edward Yorke -a.k.a. Thom Yorke- lead singer+guitarist pianist
& songwriter of the massively popular Alternative-Rock band Radiohead,
was born October 7, 1968 in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire ENGLAND.
Yorke was born with his left eye paralyzed shut and underwent five operations
before the age of 6. An eye-patch eventually allowed him some use of the
eye. Young Thom was inspired by Elvis
Costello and Queen and began singing
and playing the guitar. After a move to Oxford, he attended Abingdon School,
where the musician met future Radiohead
members Ed O'Brien and Colin Greenwood; in March 1992, they made thir
debut with the "Drill" EP.
Thom Yorke's debut solo album, "The Eraser", was released in
July 2006 on XL Recordings; the set, which was produced and arranged by
longtime Radiohead collaborator Nigel
Godrich, includes the singles "Black Swan" and "Harrowdown
Hill".
