Oasis’ music on Spotify this week as speculation grew over a reunion announcement over the last week.The band shared news this morning that they had indeed reunited and that they will embark on a huge stadium tour in 2025, which will see them appear in Manchester, London, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Dublin.Anticipation of the reunion reached fever pitch this weekend when Liam Gallagher used his Reading Festival 2024 headline set on Sunday (August 25) to tease an announcement.
The social media accounts of Oasis and brother Noel soon shared the same teaser, telling fans that news would be coming at 8am today (August 27).The band subsequently launched the OASIS LIVE 25 world tour with 14 stadium dates set to take place between Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin next summer.
These will be the band’s only shows in Europe in 2025, but a press release states that “plans are underway for OASIS LIVE 25 to go to other continents outside of Europe later next year.”Now, Spotify have shared that they’ve seen a “huge spike” in streams as fans revisit the band’s catalogue.A statement said that streams of the band increased over “160 per cent globally” from 9-11 yesterday (August 26) versus a week ago.
