About this Song
"Under Our Pillows" is a music recording from the Philippines by the English rock band The Smile. Formed in 2018, The Smile features Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead, alongside Tom Skinner from Sons of Kemet. The band's name itself is drawn from a poem by Ted Hughes. During the COVID-19 lockdowns of 2020 and 2021, The Smile worked on their music, eventually making a surprise debut performance streamed by the Glastonbury Festival in May 2021. Critics have noted that The Smile's sound shares similarities with Radiohead but incorporates additional influences from jazz, krautrock, and progressive rock, resulting in a looser and wilder musical style. Their debut album, *A Light for Attracting Attention*, released in May 2022, was produced by Radiohead's long-time collaborator Nigel Godrich and received critical acclaim, reaching number five on the UK Albums Chart.
