Waronker has also previously worked with R.E.M. , Elliott Smith and Roger Waters , as well as being a member of Thom Yorke ‘s Atoms For Peace band and experimental rock outfit Ultraísta with Nigel Godrich .
He also previously played on the tour supporting Liam and John Squire’s collaborative album in 2024.
Despite working on Beck’s new record when asked by NME in a new interview whether Waronker would be performing on Beck’s own 2026/27 tour dates which kicks off at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Vancouver tonight (September 16) , he suggested that he wouldn’t be.
“I don’t get Joey.
He’s a busy man, but he played on the record and we always play together when we have a chance,” Beck said.

Liam Gallagher previously described Waronker as “special” ahead of their previous tour and during their opening night at Cardiff Principality Stadium, Noel Gallagher hailed him and other band members from the stage .
“Thank you very much to Gem Archer on the guitar, Andy Bell on bass guitar, our 14th drummer Mr Joey Waronker, and this fucking uber legend here [ Bonehead ],” he said at the time.
Speculation that Waronker won’t be on the tour began to grow among fans after it was spotted that his name was left off the credits in the recent Oasis documentary Don’t Look Back In Anger .
But NME understands that his omission was done in error.
The Britpop icons confirmed their tour earlier this week (Monday September 14), with plans for 38 shows kicking off next May .
