Bio for Oasis

Oasis

Oasis is a British rock band formed in Manchester in 1991 by brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher. Initially named The Rain, the band underwent several member changes before solidifying their lineup as Oasis. They quickly rose to prominence in the mid-1990s as one of the leading bands of the Britpop movement, known for their distinctive sound and the Gallagher brothers’ dynamic, often turbulent relationship.

Their debut album, “Definitely Maybe” (1994), became the fastest-selling debut album in British history at the time, featuring hits like “Supersonic” and “Live Forever.” Their follow-up album, “(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?” (1995), propelled them to international fame with iconic tracks such as “Wonderwall,” “Don’t Look Back in Anger,” and “Champagne Supernova.”

Oasis’ third album, “Be Here Now” (1997), continued their success, although it received mixed reviews compared to their earlier work. Despite frequent internal conflicts and lineup changes, the band released several more albums, including “Standing on the Shoulder of Giants” (2000) and “Don’t Believe the Truth” (2005), each contributing to their legacy in rock music.

The band’s turbulent history culminated in their breakup in 2009 after a backstage altercation between the Gallagher brothers. Despite their split, Oasis remains one of the most influential bands of the 1990s and 2000s, with a lasting impact on rock and Britpop music.
