Some songs from Radiohead’s “Amnesiac,” due in March as the quick follow-up to its recent “Kid A,” will get a sneak preview Jan. 24 at a music event in Park City, Utah, during the Sundance Film Festival. However, for security reasons the versions of the new songs played will not be the same ones on the album. The event, put on by publisher Warner/Chappell Music, New Line Cinema and Entertaindom.com (which will cybercast it), is designed to showcase music acts to filmmakers, with live performances by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Semisonic and a DJ set by BT. . . .

Sisqo, with a feature role alongside Kirsten Dunst in the upcoming film “Get Over It,” has started work on the follow-up album to his 4-million-selling “Unleash the Dragon” and its hit “The Thong Song.” Al West and Warryn Campbell are the producers. . . .

Next up for Beatles fans will be a Jan. 23 reissue of George Harrison’s 1970 album, “All Things Must Pass,” with five bonus tracks including “My Sweet Lord 2000,” a new remake of the original album’s biggest hit. . . .

Brian Wilson, plagued with writer’s block in recent years, was inspired during a parents’ night at his 3-year-old daughter’s Los Angeles school. He borrowed a pencil and wrote a seasonal song, “On Christmas Day,” and the next day he got his band together and recorded the song, which can be heard starting today on his Web site, https://www.brianwilson.com. It’s the first song he’s written without a collaborator in many years. . . .
