Ed O’Brien – Blue Morpho (Limited White Label Vinyl) LP + Print & Sticker

Radiohead guitarist and songwriter Ed O’Brien returns with Blue Morpho, one of the most immersive and emotionally powerful alternative releases of 2026. This ultra limited White Label Vinyl edition has been produced in extremely small numbers and is expected to become one of the most sought-after variants of the album.

Released via Transgressive Records on 22nd May 2026, Blue Morpho sees O’Brien stepping further into expansive psych-folk, ambient textures, hypnotic rhythms and cinematic songwriting.

Named after the iridescent Blue Morpho butterfly first encountered by O’Brien while living in Brazil, the album blends radiant guitar work, trip-hop influences, jazz-inspired arrangements and atmospheric soundscapes into a deeply personal listening experience. Contributors include Philip Selway, Shabaka Hutchings, Dave Okumu and the Tallinn Chamber Orchestra.
