Liam Gallagher

With a cocksure attitude and swaggering vocal style, Liam Gallagher achieved both fame and notoriety as the lead singer of Oasis; since the band's dissolution, he's undertaken a number of musical adventures as a solo act and collaborator. After a long time as the singer only, Gallagher began stepping out of the shadow of his songwriter brother Noel, contributing original tunes for Oasis starting with the 2003 single "Songbird." The brothers split in 2009, leading Liam to take the remaining members of Oasis to form Beady Eye. Once that group ran its course, Gallagher launched a solo career in 2017 with As You Were, a number one hit in the U.K. Gallagher remained at the top of the British charts with 2019's Why Me? Why Not (along with its accompanying 2020 MTV Unplugged set) and 2022's C'Mon You Know, records that found him collaborating with a wide range of musicians including Greg Kurstin, Vampire Weekend's Ezra Koenig, and Dave Grohl. A 2024 album with Stone Roses' guitarist John Squire found the duo joyfully updating the sounds they had both helped define decades earlier.
