Thom Yorke (born 7 October 1968, Wellingborough, England; vocals, guitar) got his first instrument, a Spanish guitar from his mother at the age of eight years. Two years later, he founded his ensemble, and then joined the school of punk team, “TNT”. For the first time solo, he realized that it would be more demanding of the other members of the team. So Tom invited a group of his school friends ed O’brien (born 15 April 1968, Oxford, England; guitar) and Colin Greenwood (born 26 June 1969, Oxford, England; bass) because they shared his interest in music “Joy Division” and “Smiths”.
