Liam Gallagher has said his collaborative album with John Squire is “just the starter”, hinting that further music from the pair is on the horizon.
The former Oasis frontman and ex-Stone Roses guitarist released their self-titled, UK Number One record last month before embarking on a joint UK, Ireland and European headline tour.
Following the recent live dates, Gallagher said it would “be rude not to do another album” with Squire. “I think it’s got legs, man,” the singer explained of the team-up. He’d previously claimed that “Squire’s got a lot more in him”.
During a new interview with NME, LG said: “You’re never gonna know what [that album] is until you do another one. This is like a starter. You want the main fucking course, don’t you? And the dessert.”
Squire then asked: “So we’re doing three?” Gallagher replied: “Well, whatever. Do as many as we want, you know what I mean?”
The former went on to explain that he doesn’t have two decades’ worth of unissued material lying around in a vault in Macclesfield, but said there are “little phone recordings [of] riffs and shit” that didn’t make it onto the first album and could be worked up for the second.
According to Gallagher, the duo’s collaboration “could go anywhere”. He added: “Me, personally, I’d like to do it the fucking same just piss off the people that weren’t into it in the first place.
“Like that [he thumbed his nose], ‘It’s the saaaame again, you little c**t!'”

Elsewhere in the conversation, Gallagher defended the length of the gigs on his 2024 tour with Squire.
“Ten songs and a fucking cover!” he exclaimed, highlighting how the two of them play the album tracklist in full, as well as delivering a rendition of The Rolling Stones’ ‘Jumpin’ Jack Flash’. “What’s wrong with yous?”
Last week saw Gallagher and Squire perform their song ‘I’m A Wheel’ on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and play a headline concert in Brooklyn, New York.
In other news, Gallagher has responded to Andy Bell’s recent comments about a potential Oasis reunion.
He is also due to embark on a UK and Ireland solo tour this summer to mark the 30th anniversary of ‘Definitely Maybe’. He’ll also showcase the album in full when he headlines Reading & Leeds 2024 in August.
