Noel Gallagher announces one-off Manchester gig

Noel Gallagher will play the O2 Ritz in Manchester for the first time on Wednesday, July 18th.

Tickets go on-sale from July 4th for the one-off Absolute Radio gig, which settles in right at the heart of a month of festival and outdoor headline appearances for the High Flying Birds which will take them to Scarborough, London, Belgium, Bilbao, Edinburgh, Sheffield and Paris as the Stranded On The Earth world tour continues.

“She Taught Me How To Fly too is recognisably vintage Noel Gallagher album track territory, this time a dream-like vibe setting it apart, gorgeously accentuated by vocals pushed right to the front of the mix, and which are absolutely perfect for songs such as this,” Live4ever’s Who Built The Moon? review reads.

“The groove really gets going on Be Careful What You Wish For, which stands out for the departure in songwriting rather than mere production, Holmes this time able to take a back seat as Gallagher does all the work on a track which loops around a bass line and intangible backing vocals in a way he’s never attempted before.”
