Return Ticket: Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood and Shye Ben Tzur board The Rajasthan Express once again!
·
·
A decade. That’s how long it’s been since Shye Ben Tzur, Jonny Greenwood, and The Rajasthan Express holed up inside a 15th-century fort in Jodhpur to make Junun — an album The Sunday Times named one of the most inspired releases of that year, one that Paul Thomas Anderson turned into a documentary, and one most fans assumed would never have a sequel.
They were wrong.
Ranjha arrives May 8, and the story of how it got here is as unlikely as the project itself. The group never intended to wait a decade between releases, but COVID-19, Radiohead’s own creative plans, and other disruptions slowed everything down. Songs for Ranjha first took shape while touring globally with Radiohead in 2017 and 2018, followed by writing sessions in Italy — before the pandemic shelved it indefinitely. For years, the material sat in limbo, waiting for the right moment to breathe.
Meanwhile, Greenwood has been everywhere. His score for Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another earned an Oscar nomination, with the film going on to win Best Picture. Radiohead returned for 20 arena dates across Europe in late 2025 — their first shows in seven years. He also made Jarak Qaribak with Dudu Tassa, where singers crossed borders to reinterpret beloved Middle Eastern songs. Ben Tzur, too, never paused — deepening his life in Rajasthan and performing with The Rajasthan Express across India.
But when they finally reconvened, they chose Greenwood’s Oxfordshire studio over Mehrangarh Fort. Twenty-one musicians. Sam Petts-Davies producing. Tom Skinner from The Smile on drums. A completely different setting — but the same fearless spirit.
What hasn’t changed is the alchemy: an Israeli-American who moved to Ajmer after discovering Indian classical music at 19; a Radiohead guitarist more at home with alienation than spirituality; and a brass-heavy ensemble rooted in Sufi qawwali and Manganiyar folk. Together, they create something none could alone.
As Ben Tzur puts it: you feel this music on your body first. Then it reaches your heart. Then come the words. Ranjha is a window into a phenomenal tradition. Walk through it.

My name is Amelia from the USA. I was deeply in love with a man, and even after he began cheating on me, I still wanted him back. Unfortunately, things didn’t work out as he chose to stay with the person he cheated on me with, which hurt me deeply. Six weeks later, I read a post on a relationship forum about a spell caster who helps people get their lost love back through love spells. I decided to contact the spell caster, Doctor Masako through WhatsApp and explained my problem to him. Amazingly, within 48 hours, Dr Masako brought my man back to me, and now we’re getting married soon. All thanks to doctor Masako I highly recommend him to anyone in need of help to get their ex back. You can call or add him on WhatsApp at +2349047144277 Email him at doctormasako@gmail.com. Visit his website https://doctormasako2.wixsite.com/drmasakospelltemple

HOW I GOT AN URGENT LOVE SPELL CASTER TO BRING BACK MY EX LOVER 2026
Hello everyone my names are ALEX JACKSON from the UK, I want to use this golden medium to appreciate Doctor Abdul a great spell caster for helping me retrieving back my relationship with my ex lover when he ended and turned back on me for quite a long time now (6 months ago). He performed a spell for me and within 48 hours after the spell had been cast I received a text from my ex saying that he is sorry for the pains and tears that he had caused me and that he will not do such a thing to me again in his life. I was surprised but later accepted him back again. Anyone that is in the same line of problem or different one that wants to contact a spell caster should happily contact Doctor Abdul now on this email doctorabdulspellcaster@gmail. com or message him through his Whatsapp +2348108728256
