Members of Radiohead were seen out in Los Angeles earlier this week when they attended a show by the Hot Rats—the band formed by Gaz Coombes and Danny Goffey from fellow Oxford band Supergrass. Now, Radiohead has announced a special benefit show for Oxfam’s Haiti earthquake fund in L.A., which takes place this Sunday (Jan. 24).
