Making memories
Sat 2, July
To be the first band to play the inagural Meltham Memories music festival was an honour, and the crowd at the Carlsile Centre were brilliant, we were even more stoked to see so many of you follow us over the road as we played an initimate acoustic set at the Fourth Fiends. What a night, we are totally shattered but so glad we did it.
We want to break free
June 2, 2022
What an amazing night last night at Penkridge Open Air Festival, we'd love to do that all over again.
Even getting stuck in the carpark whilst the Queen tribute band was on, didn't dampen the spirits.
Live by the Sea
May 28, 2022
Well last night was a truly brilliant night, by far the nearest we have played to the Sea as we took to the stage for the Camping and Caravan Club meet near Bridlington, a brilliant crowd and a warm welcome was had.
To Ukraine With Love
May 14, 2022
To the people of West Yorkshire, thankyou from the bottom of our hearts for joining us last night in Marsden and helping us to raise over £1200 for the UNICEF Ukraine fund. It was a wonderful gig and you were all in fine fettle as they say in Yorkshire.

​
The aim of The Big Gig is:
​
To say a big thank you to the NHS and essential services for their tireless work during the Covid-19 pandemic
Kickstart the grassroots music industry after 18-months of hardship and uncertainty
Encourage new venues to host live music events
​
The English Lounge in Manchester will be playing host to Standing on the shoulder of Oasis for The Big Gig.

Our next gig
All hail to Hale Barns Carnival
Despite the uncertainty that surrounds the government post-covid roadmap, we can confirm that our slot at Hale Barns Carnival is going ahead.
​
Hale Barns Carnival will take place on 17th and 18th July with a 50% reduced capacity. It is free entry until 4.45 pm where it then becomes a ticketed event.
​
We will be taking to the main stage at 3 pm on Saturday 17th July for a short set of Oasis classics, get yourselves down there nice and early.
​
Sorted !
We got the keys we got the secret....
July 1st 2021
We are absolutely made up to announce that we have secured the services of Steve Stapleton on keyboards. There are very few Oasis tribute bands around that have someone on keys, and Steve is one of the most accomplished around having worked for the likes of Lenny Kravitz to name but a few.
We are excited to be working with Steve
Live...but not as we know it !
June 29th 2021
On July 17th, we will back where we truly belong, on a stage performing the very best of Oasis to a real live audience at The Hale Barns Carnival.
During the pandemic we avoided the temptation to do any live stream performances, it just isn't the same as being face to face with a crowd of lovely folk, singing along and enjoying themselves.
It has been a long time coming and we can't wait to give you the Oasis ride of your lives.Â
Check out the gigs section for details of when and where we are playing.
