SUMMARY:OASIZ- Definitely maybe the UK'S greatest Oasis tribute band
DESCRIPTION: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 as well as a high-profile TV appearance later that year. \nTo celebrate the 30th anniversary of the release of (What’s the story) Morning Glory\, OASIZ are embarking on a 2025 UK tour\, and this is your chance to see them in top form. The setlist will pay homage to the most memorable parts of Oasis’ record-breaking 2nd album and will also include all the big-hitting career-spanning anthems that you would associate with a greatest hits tour.
