March 6, 2015 – Punch Brothers perform a cover of Radiohead’s “Kid A” followed by “Wayside – Back in Time” live at House of Blues Boston.

On their decision to cover “Kid A” Chris Thile tells us, “It was fun to reimagine the piece as a full-on instrumental cause you can’t really hear the lyrics he’s singing on the recording because they have that crazy effect on his voice. And so to just kind of take that one step further and say it’s really an instrumental was our way into it.”
