Liam opens the door to new Oasis music after the tour

On 28 September Liam said any studio talk would come only after the stadium run if the tour succeeds; the itinerary already includes Slane, Knebworth and the Etihad.

Liam Gallagher posted on X on 28 September that, if Oasis’s Live ’27 tour goes well, the band would discuss new music. “can’t see us touring again unless we have new music,” he stated, crediting the idea to his brother Noel.

The comments followed earlier posts in which Gallagher suggested the tour “isn’t a farewell tour but it still could be our last”. No new music has been confirmed, and Noel Gallagher has previously indicated there would be none.

The Live ’27 map

The Live ’27 dates, announced earlier in September, include multiple nights at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester, Knebworth, Celtic Park in Glasgow and Slane Castle, together with further European and US venues. The itinerary returns the band to the large outdoor and stadium circuit that defined their peak years as a live draw, and puts Irish dates at Slane on the same footing as the English and Scottish stadium stands.

For a station that plays this catalogue daily, the shape of the run is clear enough: nights built on songs already known, in venues built for the scale those songs once commanded. What Liam’s latest posts add is a conditional glance past the final date — not a rewrite of the bill itself.

The songwriter’s long shadow

Noel Gallagher was born on 29 May 1967 and became the chief songwriter and co-lead vocalist of Oasis. In 1991 he joined the group his younger brother Liam had been fronting under the name The Rain. Renamed Oasis and guided by Noel’s writing, the band released Definitely Maybe in 1994. The album became the fastest-selling debut album in UK history. Tracks including “Wonderwall”, “Don’t Look Back in Anger” and “Champagne Supernova” fixed the group at the centre of Britpop and made Noel one of the most influential British songwriters of that decade.

That body of work is what Live ’27 will draw on. Liam’s suggestion that any touring beyond it would need new music therefore sits against a catalogue still dominated by the mid-1990s run and by Noel’s pen. Whether the brothers would share writing, or how a studio period would be organised, is not addressed in the posts.

A conversation, not a plan

The language remains careful. Liam presents new material as something to discuss if the tour succeeds, and as a threshold for further touring rather than a promise attached to 2027. Noel’s earlier indication that there would be no new music has not been withdrawn in any joint statement. Between those two positions sits only Liam’s public thought, offered on his own account.

So the firm ground is unchanged. Live ’27 is booked, the venues are named, but the prospect of unheard Oasis songs is not. Listeners who care about the records and the stage now have a clear sequence in view: the stadium dates first, and only afterwards any talk of whether the band’s next chapter includes a studio. Until that talk becomes an announcement from both sides, the music Oasis will play is the music already made.
