Radiohead have given permission for a film to include 14 songs from their back catalogue.

 The film 'The Island President' depicts the president of an island struggling to voice their concerns of climate change, and how the change will threaten their home.
 
Singer Thom Yorke said on Radiohead's official website: "The Island President is a film about the Maldives, and the struggle of President Nasheed to get the voice of a small nation heard in the climate change debate.

"Unless something is done to stop rising sea levels they will lose everything. The country will be under water. Some of our music was used to help tell the story."
 
Songs including 'The Reckoner', 'Everything In Its Right Place', 'Idioteque', 'House of Cards' and 'How To Disappear Completely', will all feature in the film due to be screened at The Sundance Film Festival later this week.

Meanwhile, Radiohead have added additional dates to their upcoming world tour.

The group, who have previously announced US tour dates for February and March, will now play a further four shows.

Radiohead will play in San Jose, Seattle and Santa Barbara in April, as well as a date at Taiwan's Nanag Exhibition Hall on July 25.
