The Manchester giants have unveiled their latest single, confirmed when their self-titled album will be released and announced live dates for this spring.
Liam Gallagher and John Squire have today (Friday 26th January) revealed the details of their self-titled album, released its second single and announced an accompanying tour.
The Manchester icons have confirmed that their joint studio effort will be released on 1st March 2024, while sharing the second cut to be taken from the record, Mars To Liverpool.
The single follows the release of the psychedelic-tinged Just Another Rainbow, which was unveiled earlier this month.

Liam Gallagher said of their upcoming record: "I can't wait for people to hear the album. I think the people that are into the Stone Roses and Oasis and that kinda thing, I think they'll fucking love it. It's spiritual, it's crucial. LG x".
John Squire added: “It was really inspiring to have those Knebworth gigs fresh in my mind as I started writing. Then it was a case of trying to steer it away from all being too rocky, and trying to mix up the sentiments as well. I like the way that in some parts, it's quite melancholic and it can make you well up, but there are other parts that are kind of irreverent, rude or crude. There's a little bit of everything in there, I think it's a really good mix. I had a hunch that we’d sound good together, but I wasn’t prepared for it to be such a good fit."
The album, which is available to pre-order here, will be available in several physical formats, including standard CD and vinyl, a deluxe split-colour vinyl, a white vinyl stocked by HMV and select indie stores and an Amazon exclusive orange vinyl.
