Former Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher has announced that himself and the Stone Roses guitarist John Squire will be playing Glastonbury Festival 2024.

Following their joint tour, which sold out in a matter of seconds, Liam Gallagher was replying to questions from fans on X, formerly known as Twitter. The person asked: “Will we see you and Squire at Glastonbury this summer LG?”, to which he replied: “Yeah”.

Last year, Gallagher and Squire revealed their debut single, "Just Another Rainbow", which eventually led to the announcement of an album. While this represents the duo’s first collaboration together, the first time they were in a room together was way back in 1989. The then 16-year-old Gallagher attended a Stone Roses gig at the International 2 in Manchester around the time their self-titled debut album was released.

Gallagher arrived at Squire’s studio in Macclesfield and vowed to complete vocals for two demo recordings each day, a promise that he stuck to, and soon enough they had a catalogue of killer songs to choose from. From there it was off to Los Angeles for three weeks of sessions with revered producer Greg Kurstin who plays bass on the record, with drums courtesy of Joey Waronker (Beck, R.E.M., Atoms for Peace).

Glastonbury Festival 2024 takes place from 26-30 June at Worthy Farm. For more information, visit glastonburyfestival.co.uk.
