The former Verve frontman has broken his silence on the Gallagher brothers' upcoming dates, where he'll be joining them as special guest.
Richard Ashcroft has reacted to the news he's set to join Oasis on their live '27 dates.
The former Verve frontman was one of the special guests alongside Liverpool band CAST on the Gallagher brothers' Live '25 tour and now it looks like he'll be joining them again next year.
The news was originally outlined in the FAQs for the new string of shows, but the Bittersweet Symphony singer has since taken to Instagram to confirm his booking.
Sharing an image of himself performing front of crowds, he wrote: "Let’s do it again! Love and peace RA".
It's not yet been confirmed who will be joining him on the bill.
Speaking on Radio X back in 2025, Ashcroft previously revealed he told Noel Gallagher that he was the "only person" who could support Oasis.
"I see it as I've got a very important part to play in this," he told The Chris Moyles Show. "You know, back in the day Oasis supported The Verve and then it flipped around and we supported Oasis at Earls Court, then I as a solo artist have played with Oasis."
He went on: "I said to Noel, 'You know, I think I'm the only person who could go in this slot. Especially for a huge outdoor show, because everyone wants you lot. And unless you're coming with something, unless you've got something to offer, I don't know what's gonna happen'."
