The nearly impossible, the previously unthinkable, is happening: Oasis has announced a reunion, with Liam and Noel Gallagher re-forming the British rock group that made them famous after 15 years and countless verbal jabs at each other. And over the past few days, U.S. music listeners have toasted the unlikely comeback by revisiting (or discovering) the band’s back catalog, nearly quadrupling their daily audio streams in the process.

On Sunday (Aug. 25), Oasis’ social accounts ” rel=””>teased an announcement for the morning of Tuesday, Aug. 27, prompting fans to hold out hope that recent reports in the British press of an official reunion would turn out to be true. Prior to the teaser, Oasis’ daily U.S. on-demand audio streams hovered around the 750,000 mark, with the band earning 754,000 streams last Saturday, according to Luminate; the social hinting on Sunday helped push that number to 820,000 streams that day.

That number crossed into seven-digit territory by Monday (1.31 million streams) as anticipation built for Oasis’ announcement. And once the Oasis Live ’25 Tour was unveiled on Tuesday morning, that streaming total more than doubled, to 2.80 million U.S. on-demand audio streams on Tuesday.

Oasis’ reunion tour will begin July 4, 2025, and include 17 dates across five cities in the United Kingdom, more than 15 years after the Gallagher brothers’ last performance together in 2009. General tickets will go on sale this Saturday (Aug. 31).

Next week, we’ll have a better sense of which Oasis songs have benefited the most from the reunion news on streaming platforms, as well as expected upticks in consumption of the band’s biggest albums. Since debuting with Definitely Maybe in 1994, Oasis released seven studio albums and sent their iconic sing-along “Wonderwall” into the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 chart, where it peaked at No. 8 in early 1996.
