OASIZ are one of the UK’s most authentic tribute bands, a point proved in 2023 when a short clip of front man Steve performing as Liam went viral on social media with over half a million views. Many fans were convinced the clip was actually of Liam Gallagher himself which led to the story being covered in the national press.The setlist will pay homage to the most memorable parts of Oasis’ record breaking career and will also include all the big hitting anthems that you would associate with a greatest hits tour.One not to miss!
