Liam and Noel Gallagher Spend Easter Together: ‘Absolutely Incredible’
The casual catch-up arrives just months before the first Oasis shows since the band's 2009 split.

Oasis fans have been holding their breath for months ahead of their long-awaited reunion tour — and now, they’ve got another reason to believe the Gallagher brothers are back on good terms for good.
On Sunday (April 21), Liam Gallagher took to X (formerly Twitter) to share a surprising family moment: he spent Easter Sunday with his brother Noel and Noel’s two sons, Donovan and Sonny.
“So we had a BIBLICAL Easter Sunday,” Liam wrote. “Noel Donavan and Sonny popped over to ours for a cup of tea. It was absolutely incredible to meet the young guvs. I obviously blew their minds coz I’m cool as f—. You heard it here 1st.”

The casual tea catch-up arrives just months before the first Oasis shows since the band’s 2009 split. The iconic Britpop group is due to kick off its global reunion tour this July, having announced 41 dates so far for the tour, which will kick off with the first of two shows at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, before criss-crossing the U.K. in advance of a North American run beginning August 24 in Toronto; the tour will then move on to Mexico City, South Korea, Japan, Australia and South America.
The new tour follows decades of tension between the brothers, who last performed together during Oasis’ 2009 tour before an infamous backstage blow-up in Paris led to the band’s split. Since then, both Gallaghers have pursued solo careers — Liam releasing multiple solo albums and Noel fronting the High Flying Birds.
In January, Liam responded to a fan’s dream setlist, telling them “it’s not far off,” when they asked if the unsolicited rundown was “official.” The list included band’s past setlists, including such live staples as: “Acquiesce,” “Some Might Say,” “Lyla,” “Shakermaker,” “The Hindu Times,” “Cast No Shadow,” “Slide Away,” “Supersonic,” “Morning Glory,” “Rock ‘n’ Roll Star,” “Cigarettes & Alcohol,” “Don’t Look Back in Anger,” “Live Forever” and “Champagne Supernova.”
