OASIS has revealed the second act supporting them for their sell-out 2025 reunion tour.
Nineties indie icons Cast will open at all nineteen instantly sold-out shows.
The announcement comes after Richard Ashcroft was revealed as the special guest for the UK and Ireland leg of the Oasis Live ‘25 tour.
Cast previously joined Liam Gallagher's Definitely maybe arena tour in the summer.
Frontman John Power says: “I’m blown away at the reunion. Oasis are the voice of a generation and the songs that they wrote and sung were and still are the soundtrack to many people’s dreams. They are the people’s band.
"I’ve known Noel and Liam all through the years, we go way back. It’s been some ride, some journey. I’ve felt and known their music personally, as a fan.
"It inspired me as songwriter, it blew the whole scene open like nothing before and it reached way beyond the stratosphere. Everything changed.
"We were all part of that and we will all be part of this. I’m especially looking forward to revisiting my family’s Irish roots when the tour hits Dublin. Let the opening chords shimmer and shine next July.”
Soon after Supersonic sent Oasis stratospheric, the famous brothers - who admired John’s demos - offered Cast a support slot.
That show was where Cast were spotted and then promptly signed by Polydor.
Cast went on to play at numerous legendary Oasis gig highlights, from Paris to Irving Beach, Loch Lomond to Knebworth.
Still featuring fellow founder members Liam ‘Skin’ Tyson (guitar) and Keith O’Neill (drums), Cast were one of the biggest bands of their era with three Top 10 albums which all reached Platinum or Silver certification, as well as seven Top 10 singles.
This year’s ‘Love Is The Call’ achieved their strongest chart positions (#22 Official Albums, #3 Independent Albums, #5 Album Sales) and critical acclaim in 25 years, with MOJO praising its “Brit Invasion melodies, thrusting rockabilly guitars, and lyrics that find hope in seaport-based fantasy and the power of connection.”
