Noel Gallagher has tracks for potential Oasis album ahead of reunion tour - definitely, maybe?
Noel Gallagher has recorded six potential new Oasis songs.
The 57-year-old rocker has been busy in the studio ahead of the group’s reunion tour in 2025, but with previous recording sessions for the band being notoriously volatile — thanks to tension with his brother, Liam — it remains to be seen if or how they will finish them together.
“Noel has been making new music for a few months and has around six tracks in the bag,” a source told The Sun on Sunday newspaper.

“It’s of the utmost importance that they are as harmonious as possible ahead of their massive reunion.
“There is intense speculation in the record industry that Noel is to exploit the huge success of their reunion tour to finally invite Liam on his tunes.”
However, the outlet claimed the idea of the songs being recorded for Oasis has been “intensely denied” by Noel and Liam’s “people”, who insisted the brothers’ focus is on the tour.
However, Noel is keen for the band not to be seen as a “nostalgia act”.
“Noel knows the reunion is about the hits but he doesn’t want them to be purely a nostalgia act,” the source said.
“He has the tunes ready to go and if things continue to work well with Liam then it could be amazing.”
Liam recently declared he had been “blown away” by the music Noel has been writing for a potential Oasis record.
One fan asked on X: “What do you think of Noel’s new songs he’s written for Oasis?”
The 52-year-old singer replied: “Blown away.”
Liam claimed in September that he and Noel had recorded new songs ahead of the reunion.
A fan asked: “Is it true that Oasis will have a new album???”
Liam responded: “Yep it’s already finished.”
