Liars have reportedly been confirmed as the main support on the first leg of Radiohead’s North American tour.

The first set of dates kick off at the Cruzan Amphitheatre on May 5 and winds up at Dallas Superpages Center on May 18.

According to Radiohead fan site, Ateaseweb.com, dance legends Underworld are rumoured to be supporting Oxford’s finest on their second US stint which starts in August.

In-between the US tours, the band will be in Europe for a string of headline festival appearances as well as their own dates.

The stint includes an appearance at Daydream Festival in Spain where Radiohead have helped curate the line-up choosing acts who have influenced them and acts that have subsequently been influenced by Radiohead.
