Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds headlining Neighbourhood Weekender 2018 (Gary Mather for Live4ever)
Noel Gallagher has announced an outdoor UK show with the High Flying Birds for the summer of 2020 as part of next year’s Heritage Live concert series.
The gig will take place at London’s Kenwood House overlooking Hampstead Heath, and is the first festival appearance of Gallagher’s to be confirmed for next year.
Our last visit to a Noel Gallagher show came at Heaton Park back in his native Manchester last June; “The High Flying Birds were always meant to be an evolving collective (evidenced by Scissor Queen Charlotte Marionneau having to temporarily step away from the tour in the days leading up to the gig), but Gallagher will do well to better the current line-up,” our review reads.
“Mike Rowe, Chris Sharrock and Gem Archer all bring their Oasis experience to the table, but should never be taken for granted. In particular, Archer’s solos on both Little By Little and The Masterplan transcend the rest of the song.”
“Equally, Jess Greenfield on keys and backing vocals adds a lightness of touch and a specific groove, and Zuton Russ Pritchard does everything that is asked of him on bass and is the tent pole around which everything else revolves.”
