Last night, Brian Eno staged his all-star Together For Palestine benefit concert at London’s OVO Arena, and it streamed live around the world. The members of Portishead were unable to be there in person, but they wanted to be part of it, so they got back together in the weeks before the show and recorded a live, pre-taped version of “Roads,” a song from their classic 1994 debut album Dummy. This was the first Portishead performance of any kind since their five-song set at a 2022 War Child benefit for Ukraine. Today, Portishead have shared the live video that played in the arena. They’re backed up by a keyboardist and a string section, and they sound incredible. The video is cool, too. Watch it below.
