Oasis recently announced that Richard Ashcroft, the former lead singer of The Verve, will be joining them for their Live ’25 Tour at Edinburgh Murrayfield. The band, consisting of brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher, confirmed their reunion and worldwide tour in 2025, much to the excitement of fans. Ashcroft expressed his excitement to join Oasis on tour, citing the band’s influence on his own music career.
The official social media accounts of both Oasis and Ashcroft shared a video featuring footage of the singer with the Gallagher brothers over the years. Noel Gallagher dedicated a song to Ashcroft during one of their previous performances, highlighting the camaraderie between the musicians. The tour will include stops in Manchester, London, Edinburgh, and Dublin throughout July and August next year.
Fans have long awaited the reunion of Oasis, following their breakup in 2009 due to conflicts between the Gallagher brothers. The demand for tickets for their upcoming tour has been unprecedented, with some prices doubling from the original amount. This led to controversy and calls for investigation into ticket pricing practices by the Government and competition watchdog in the UK.
The Live ’25 Tour will kick off in Cardiff and include three nights at Edinburgh Murrayfield Stadium in August. Additional details about the support line-up for the tour will be announced in the future. This tour will be the only European shows for Oasis in 2025, making it a highly anticipated event for fans across the continent.
