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.

Due to a mistake made by my financial accountant during transaction payments, my company suffered a loss of $621,000.00 USDT worth of Crypto. Despite multiple attempts to recover the funds, reaching out to banks, and engaging various recovery firms, we had no success and even ended up losing an additional $100,000. However, a glimmer of hope came when I came across an article in ABCS morning gossip news outlining how a family successfully retrieved their lost assets with the help of a recovery expert called markwizard Tech . Specializing in cyber and Crypto intelligence, markwizard Tech assists scam victims in recovering their funds. Seeking their expertise, I immediately contacted them through the support systems mail, and miraculously, they were able to recover 65,100 euro of my company’s funds.

I still can’t believe this is real, but I actually won the lottery jackpot! It feels like a dream come true. For years, I would occasionally play without expecting much, just hoping that one day luck would finally be on my side—and it finally happened when I came across a testimony on how Dr Benjamin the great spell caster had helped alot of people win, so I reached out to him, he told me what to do and I followed his instructions, after 48 hours he gave some numbers to play, I did played the numbers as instructed.
The moment I checked my numbers and realized they all matched, my heart started racing. I had to double-check multiple times because I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Winning the Powerball jackpot of $107,000,000,00. This has completely changed my life. It’s given me financial freedom, peace of mind, and the opportunity to support my family and invest in my future. Here are his contact information.
