Oasis have officially launched a new project, in partnership with Circa Art, in order to “put music back into UK State Schools.”
The project, titled ‘Project Rock N’ Roll Stars’, will sell prints of original handwritten lyrics by Oasis, in celebration of their ‘Live ’25’ reunion dates. Fine art lyric sheets are available for some of their iconic tracks, including ‘Wonderwall’, ‘Don’t Look Back In Anger’, ‘Stand By Me’, ‘Champagne Supernova’, and ‘Rock ’n’ Roll Star’.
Brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher will use the project to give state schools across the country the opportunity to apply to receive instruments that they are able to share amongst their community.
With the prints, 100 per cent of Oasis royalties, which totals 50 per cent of proceeds, will be committed to helping to put music back into UK state schools. They will be available for a limited time until November 25th.
Oasis have made a tremendous return to the music world this year. They recently wrapped up the North American leg of their shows, which saw them play at stadiums across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Before the year is done, Oasis still have even more memorable dates in their diary in South Korea, Japan, Australia, Argentina, Chile and Brazil.
Last month, during an interview on TalkSPORT, Noel said of their iconic comeback tour so far, “I’m completely blown away. It’s difficult to put it into words, actually. It’s kind of like every night is the crowd’s first night, do you know what I mean? So every night’s got that kind of same energy. It’s been truly amazing.”
The band recently released an unplugged version of the track ‘Morning Glory’. The new cut is one of five unplugged tracks that are set to appear on (What’s The Story) Morning Glory? (30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition), which will also contain unplugged versions of ‘Cast No Shadow’, ‘Champagne Supernova’, ‘Wonderwall’, and ‘Acquiesce’, which was released in July.
