Liam Gallagher headlining TRNSMT Festival (Gary Mather for Live4ever)
Liam Gallagher was on The Tonight Show yesterday performing Once from his second solo album Why Me? Why Not.
It also marked the conclusion of his stint in North America supporting The Who, bringing an album across the Atlantic which we described as ‘possibly the most uplifting of the year’:
“Halo is the spiritual brother of Beady Eye’s Bring The Light, driving honky tonk piano and a whistling breakdown which successfully masks some more lyrical clangers. The River rectifies this; a marauding beast taking the modern world to task (‘the device in your hand masks your beauty’).”
“It goes without saying that, as good as these songs are, it’s Gallagher’s voice that makes some of them transcendent. At certain points he goes full falsetto, and his talent for perfectly pitching his vocals to compliment the music continues to be his greatest strength.”
