Oasis reunion, saying that his dad Liam wants it to happen.Speculation about the iconic Britpop band reforming has been brewing over recent years, and came to a head at the start of 2024 as their breakthrough album ‘Definitely Maybe’ marked its 30th anniversary.While nothing has been officially announced, the members have been adding fuel to the fire when it comes to rumours – each expressing an on-and-off approach to the concept in past interviews.Now, Liam’s son – and Noel’s nephew – Gene has also weighed in on the debate, and explained in a new interview that his dad is wanting the reunion to come to fruition.“I get the feeling my dad wants it, too.

Let’s hope it happens. It’s easier to speak about after a couple of pints,” the guitarist and songwriter said during a discussion with The Times.He also denied that he had been sworn to secrecy about the future plans and explained that he’d like to see it take place as much as the next fan.“It’s nothing to do with me…I mean, will they?

I don’t know. I would love it but it’s so beyond my control,” he added, also confirming the he and Noel’s daughter Anaïs have joked about staging an intervention for the brothers, but the two were “too smart for that”.Gene, whose mother is All Saints singer Nicole Appleton, has also pursued a career in the music industry, and is a part of the indie rock band Villanelle.

Earlier this year, they acted as support for Liam for his current run of arena shows, which celebrated the 30th anniversary of ‘Definitely Maybe’.Since then, the band have announced their debut UK headline tour, kicking off in Glasgow on November 19 and continuing throughout the month.
