the return of Oasis brings joy to tribute bands in the United Kingdom

The Oasis phenomenon is already filling theaters in England. However, the group, which has just announced its reunion, will not play until next summer. But the hype surrounding this return benefits the “tribute bands” who play all over the country. Groups which, like Definitely Oasis, play the repertoire and copy the on-stage behavior of Oasis.

Black glasses, waterproof jacket closed to the top, hands behind the back, chest leaning sideways towards the microphone… The posture of the Oasis singer is there but it’s not Liam Gallagher on the stage of the Dark Horse, Thursday October 3 in Birmingham. The audience still enjoys it. “I’ve been a fan of Oasis since I was a kid”explains this man. I won’t go see them next summer, the tickets were too expensive. So, I’m coming tonight and these guys are really cool.”

Definitely Oasis are musicians from Glasgow. They drove seven hours for this concert and the dates kept coming. “Yes, every weekendconfirms Fraser, daily electrician and bassist of the group. It’s a long drive but it’s worth it. The atmosphere is great. Every evening, people sing. We never get bored.”

The band was formed in 2009 in Glasgow, when the Gallagher brothers split up. He has built up a great reputation throughout the United Kingdom. And everything accelerated with the announcement of the reformation of Oasis last summer.

“So far Oasis hasn’t announced a date in Europe, so we’re filling in the blank.”
