Oasis 'massive news' being released on radio this week can be revealed now

Rumours of a new Oasis album being announced live on radio tomorrow are wide of the mark - despite a DJ claiming there was "massive news" coming. Fans of Liam and Noel Gallagher have been getting excited and rumours and social media claims have been growing all weekend after a Radio X DJ Dan O'Connell said on air something supersonic was coming out. On Friday, he said : "I got a message from very important people at Radio X. They told me to make sure I mention that on Monday morning Chris Moyles has something big for Oasis fans. If that is you there is something massive happening."

Tik Tok videos and instagram posts then also claimed to have snippets of new audio from the band from a mixing desk, with others claiming a new single would even be played this week and a new album to follow ahead of their reunion tour next year.

But sources close to the band say the announcement will actually only be good news to anyone still without tickets for the UK tour. The insider said: "The rumour got a life of its own and in reality you are looking at something like prizes and some kind of big Oasis giveaway or competition. It is still something to celebrate but it is not the big announcement some fans were hoping for."

And now Radio X, perhaps wary of getting fans hopes up about new material, has said: "If you missed out on Oasis tickets you need to tune in tomorrow morning."

This is not the first time rumours have gone into overdrive about new material. Liam himself was forced to distance himself from a new Oasis album after he made flippant comments on X, formerly twitter.

In September, when one fan asked “Is it true that Oasis will have a new album???”, Liam replied: “Yep it’s already finished.” He also responded to a fan asking if a new record was “in the air”, to which he said, “It’s in the bag mate f*** the air”.

But dismissing his earlier teasers, Liam said a week ago there’s “no Oasis album in the making”. Responding to a fan news account that claimed the brothers were “working intently” on a new album, Liam added: “I was f***ing joking remember them and the reason being because everyone is a little uptight these days I’m sorry if I have upset anyone but f*** me it was a laugh.”

Previously Noel has also said he has new songs in demo form, which some close to the band now believe will not be for his High Flying Birds band but instead for a new Oasis album next year.

The Oasis reunion UK tour kicks off in Cardiff on July 4, 2025, and finishes at Wembley in September. There are also dates in North America and Australia next year.

The full line up for Oasis on stage is also yet to be confirmed with Gem Archer, Andy Bell and original member Paul 'Bonehead' Arthurs expected to be on stage with Noel and Liam.

Richard Ashcroft is the main support act. Richard said: “As a fan from day one I was buzzing for many reasons when the news of Oasis’s return was announced. I can say with no exaggeration that the songwriting talent of Noel and Liam’s pure spirit as a lead singer helped to inspire me to create some of my best work. It was the perfection of ‘Live Forever’ that forced me to try and write my own. They dared to be great, made the dreams we had real and I will always remember those days with joy. Now it’s time to create more memories and I’m ready to bring it. See you next summer. Music is power.”
