The 51-year-old musician, who was the lead vocalist of Britpop band Oasis, has teamed up with John Squire, former guitarist of The Stone Roses, to release new music, the Independent reports.
Speaking to The Guardian about the musical landscape in 2024, Gallagher said: “No-one wants to be in a band and share success these days. It’s all ‘me me me’ solo stars.”
Discussing his collaboration with Squire and their recently released single Just Another Rainbow, he said: “I’m a massive Stone Roses fan.
“They were the ones who got me into (being in) a band, so I know the rhythms.
“It’s not like I’m singing Trent Reznor out of the f***** Nine Inch Nails, d’you know what I mean?
“Not that I’m saying it was easy. I just make it look easy.”
Squire, 61, wrote the lyrics for their new material and Gallagher said the words resonated with him.
Asked if he had the power to veto any of the lyrics, Gallagher said: “If there were any kinky saucepot shenanigans going on, I’d obviously have pulled him up on it!
“But I remember getting the lyrics, thinking: it feels like me.”
The two have collaborated previously and co-wrote Love Me And Leave Me, released in 1997, which was recorded by Squire’s band The Seahorses, who supported Oasis on tour.
