In a landmark moment for Mancunian music, Liam Gallagher and John Squire have announced their previously teased collaboration, revealing they have recorded a whole album as a duo.
The ex-Oasis frontman and ex-Stone Roses guitarist – two of the most successful and acclaimed musicians to emerge from Manchester – have a longstanding connection. Squire played live with Oasis and later Gallagher on performances of the epic psychedelic ballad Champagne Supernova, and in 1997, Gallagher co-wrote a song with Squire called Love Me and Leave Me which was recorded by Squire’s band the Seahorses, who also supported Oasis on tour. But the new project marks the first time the pair have recorded music as a duo.
