Guitarist and composer Jonny Greenwood is “out of danger” after intensive care medical treatment, according to a statement released by one of his musical projects The Smile.
Greenwood, who composed movie scores for The Phantom Thread, Spencer, There Will Be Blood and The Power of the Dog in addition to his longtime status as lead guitarist and keyboard player with Radiohead, will soon be returning home from hospital, but The Smile – which sees Greenwood on stage with Radiohead bandmate Thom Yorke – has cancelled forthcoming engagements. The statement read:
“A few days ago, Jonny became seriously ill from an infection that needed emergency hospital treatment, some of it in intensive care. Mercifully he is now out of danger and will soon return home. We have been instructed by the medical team in charge of Jonny’s care to cancel all engagements until he has had time to make a full recovery.
“To that end, The Smile tour of Europe in August is cancelled. We all wish Jonny a speedy recovery.”
Greenwood was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Radiohead in 2019. He received Oscar nominations for his scores for Phantom Thread (2017) and The Power of the Dog (2021).
