“People can say what they want about them, but there aren’t many bands that can come back and create that kind of hype across the country.”
Oasis’ reconciliation may have surprised the entire world. I didn’t even know how the Blossoms band members revealed it on a radio show Noel Gallagher Daughter, Anaïs Gallagher, from the reunion.
Blossoms remember the Oasis news
“I remember when the rumors started appearing in the online news,” Tom Ogden told his bandmates. The group spoke about all the special happenings in the music world over the last twelve months on the “Blossoms A to This also included the topics surrounding the Oasis gathering. “Me and you were texting each other frantically, weren’t you?” added drummer Joe Donovan.
Noel Gallagher’s daughter ‘actually had no idea’
Odgen continued on the show: “You know what, Noel’s daughter Anaïs was at home with me and Katie when these new stories came out. And she actually had no idea. She texted people she knew to find out if it was true. She didn’t find out anything.” The 24-year-old came to a Blossoms show in Wythenshawe the next day, as the singer said. After this performance, the group showed a video with a date and time in a standard Oasis font. By the way, the same clip Liam Gallagher at his show on August 25th in Reading, England. On the stage screen you could see: “08/27/24, 8am”. Noel Gallagher also shared this data, which was still mysterious at the time, on his website social media. As it later emerged, the date and time was when Oasis would announce their reunion tour of the UK and Ireland.
The Blossoms had previously known nothing about the content of the clip that they wanted to show at the end of their own show. Odgen told Radio I can’t tell you what it is. But it’s very exciting.’ Then we somehow put two and two together. Of course the teaser went out and the rest is history. Oasis are back! They are sold out everywhere. A ticket chaos! What a band, unbelievable.”
Blossoms were inspired by Oasis
For Odgen it was clear: “We have never been afraid to say how much Oasis have inspired us over the years. People can say what they want about them, but there aren’t many bands that can come back and create such hype across the country like they did… across the world! We will definitely keep our fingers crossed for Anaïs.”
Anaïs was already working as a photographer for her father’s solo band. She also directed the documentary series “The Making Of Council Skies”, in which you can follow Noel Gallagher and his band High Flying Birds during the creation of the record COUNCIL SKIES.
