Innovative Guitarist & Songwriter; Founding Member of Radiohead
EOB Biography
Edward John O’Brien, commonly known as EOB, is a distinguished English guitarist, songwriter and an integral member of the iconic rock band Radiohead.
O’Brien attended Abingdon School in Oxfordshire, where he met his future bandmates – Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, Colin Greenwood, and Phil Selway – and discovered his love for music. Radiohead’s journey to prominence began in the mid-1980s while the band members were still at school. In the early days, O’Brien played a vital role in creating the band’s iconic guitar sound, using distortion, feedback, and unconventional playing techniques to create an atmospheric and ethereal sound.
Aside from his work in Radiohead, O’Brien has also pursued a solo career under the moniker EOB. In 2020, he released his first solo album Earth, which was met with widespread critical acclaim. The album showcased O’Brien’s immense creativity and his ability to capture a variety of moods and tones.
O’Brien’s influence on music extends beyond his work in Radiohead. He has collaborated with a diverse range of artists, including PJ Harvey, Blur, and Neil Finn. His contributions to the music industry have been recognized numerous times throughout his career. In 2010, he was awarded the Ivor Novello Award for International Achievement in Songwriting, and Radiohead was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2019.
Despite his immense success and global renown, O’Brien remains a humble and grounded individual who is passionate about his craft. His unique guitar sound, innovative songwriting, and unwavering dedication to music have earned him a well-deserved place in the pantheon of rock and roll legends.
