With Radiohead's Philip Selway

Mary Anne Hobbs talks to Radiohead drummer and solo artist Philip Selway about his childhood, the early days of Radiohead and finding his own voice.

No alarms and no surprises. Settle into a lovely, intimate chat between Mary Anne Hobbs and Philip Selway (Radiohead drummer and, latterly, a sublime solo artist).

Philip has been behind the Radiohead drumkit for thirty years and eight albums. In 2008 Gigwise voted him the 26th drummer of all time.

Philip is a musician who possesses a rare grace and class. Aside from Radiohead he has collaborated with Jarvis Cocker, Neil Finn, Richard Thompson and Kate Rusby. His second solo album Weatherhouse is released in October via Bella Union.

In this revealing interview he talks about childhood, the early days of Radiohead, and finding his own voice for the first time.
