The collaboration will see the Britpop giants sell a collection of prints of hand-written lyrics, with 100% of Oasis’ royalties being made available for state schools to purchase new musical instruments.

Some of their most iconic tracks including ‘Wonderwall’, ‘Stand By Me’ and of course ‘Rock ’n’ Roll Star’ will be included in the prints, which are only available for a limited time until November 25.

There will also be a print of an iconic shot of the Gallagher brothers walking onto stage hand-in-hand at Wembley Stadium earlier this year. All prints will be available to purchase until November 25 from here.

All state schools across the UK can apply to receive instruments from the initiative here, with Oasis saying on Instagram: “100% of Oasis royalties (50% of proceeds) will be used to purchase and distribute musical instruments and provide educational support to UK state schools in 2026.”

This announcement comes just a week after Noel Gallagher created exclusive artwork which will be sold to raise money for Teenage Cancer Trust. Two ‘sticker-bomb’ prints are available to purchase from Sunday Is Boring – a platform aiming to “collaborate with artists and creatives who sit outside the conventional art world.”

Oasis will play the final two UK gigs of their Live ’25 tour this weekend, as they head back to Wembley Stadium before finishing up the tour in Asia and South America later in the year.

Despite online rumours that the Mancunian brothers already have a tour pencilled in for next year – including dates at Manchester City FC’s Etihad Stadium and Knebworth – nothing has been confirmed yet and as it stands this weekend will mark Oasis’ final two gigs in the UK. Only time will tell whether they will return for more.

Chara – real name Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh – will appear for his third court hearing on terror charges, with the previous two attracting hundreds of fans and protesters showing support for the Irish rapper.

The group have called on their fans to show up in London “to support Liam Óg & Kneecap against British State repression”, telling supporters to “Bring your flags, keffiyeh and voices”.

The politically charged rappers have now taken to social media to claim that the police have “just invoked a section 14 for our supporters tomorrow” which means any protesters who appear outside the Westminster Magistrates Court will risk arrest.

“They previously, and in our view needlessly, did this before the last court date, but this time have removed our supporters from anywhere close to the court entrance. This is petty in the extreme.

“We massively appreciate the support of what we know are the majority of the public, who can see this farce for what it is. It is a distraction from war crimes that the British state still support every single day in Gaza.”

They continued: “In our view this police action is designed to try and portray support for Kneecap as somehow troublesome, and to keep our support far away view when we arrive and depart.”

They then went on to claim that this is a calculated political decision taken the day before Mo Chara’s court appearance, saying: “There is no basis for this, both our last hearings were entirely peaceful and a loving show of solidarity with the most disruptive attendees being the right wing media and the police themselves who arrested a man for holding a sign only to release him later with no charge.

“We know all of our supporters will be, but please go out of your way to be compliant with all instructions issues, irrespective of how pitiful.”

The official Met Police document gives more insight into the details, including a map showing a small shaded area where Kneecap’s supporters “must remain”.

The document reads: “I hereby give a direction imposing the following conditions on the persons organising or taking part in the assembly, which appear to me to be necessary to prevent serious disorder, damage, disruption, impact or intimidation.

“Any person taking part in the Kneecap & The Irish Brigade assembly in support of Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh must remain within the shaded area on the attached map.”

The third hearing of the high profile court case will take place tomorrow (Friday September 26) at Westminster Magistrates Court as Mo Chara faces terror charges for allegedly showing support for Hezbollah – a proscribed terrorist organisation in the UK – during a live show last year.

Kneecap and Chara have consistently denied supporting either Hamas or Hezbollah, saying they “do not incite or condone violence” and arguing that the legal action is just a “carnival of distraction.”

The post-punk duo will kick off their return early next year at the legendary venue Barrowland Ballroom in Glasgow on February 6. They will then spend the next month heading to the likes of Manchester, Cardiff and Belfast before concluding at the 02 Academy Brixton in London on March 7.

Frontman, Jason Williamson, revealed why now is the time for the duo from Nottingham to return, stating: “We took a year off ‘cause I needed to get my nails did, and now we’re itching to get back out there and play live. We released a new single, ‘Megatron’, last week, it’s an absolute banger so we’re buzzing to play that live for the first time.”

When asked if there is any further new material on the horizon, Williamson hinted at the possibility, saying: “Who knows, we might have a few more new tracks to drop by then. Either way, it’s been a while since we toured, and we’re gagging for it.”

The duo – consisting of Williamson and Andrew Fearn – have teamed up with humanitarian aid charity War Child – donating £1 from every ticket sold to the charity which supports children in war-torn countries.

This gesture continues the partnership between the band and War Child, after previously confirming that they would be donating the proceeds from ‘Megatron’ to the charity. This comes after the duo teamed up with Hot Chip last year on two singles in benefit of War Child – where they raised over £47,000.

Clare Sanders-Wright, War Child’s Live Music Lead, shared the charities gratitude in a new statement, saying: “We’re incredibly grateful to Sleaford Mods for their continued generosity and support. Every ticket sold will directly support our work protecting, educating, and standing up for children affected by war, and we can’t thank them and their team enough for standing with us.”

Sleaford Mods’ 2026 UK & Ireland tour dates are as follows: 

February

6 – Barrowland Ballroom, Glasgow

7 – Academy, Manchester
12 – O2 Academy, Leeds
13 – O2 Academy, Liverpool

Tickets go on sale this Friday (September 26) and can be purchased here – with £1 of every sale be donated to War Child.

Two pieces will be going up for sale, with each of them being created by Gallagher during the Covid-19 pandemic.

The art, which has been reimagined as two new print editions, came from a place of boredom during the first lockdowns, with Gallagher stating: “These pieces are actually photographed images of my sons’ two bedroom doors that I started to sticker bomb due to boredom during the first few weeks of the Covid-19 lockdown in March and April 2020.”

The Oasis songwriter is a long-term ambassador for the UK charity and has been apart of many fundraisers in the past for them, including performing a cover of The Smiths ‘There Is A Light That Never Goes Out’.

Both pieces of art will be exclusively sold on a new website created by fellow Teenage Cancer Trust ambassadors and artists, The Connor Brother. The two brothers created this new platform – called Sunday Is Boring – with the aim to “collaborate with artists and creatives who sit outside the conventional art world.”

Speaking about their partnership with the legendary Mancunian musician, the Connor Brother said: “We are delighted to be working with Noel again to raise much needed funds for Teenage Cancer Trust. As fathers and people whose lives have been directly affected by cancer, it is a cause that is very close to our hearts.”

The Head of Music and Entertainment at Teenage Cancer Trust, Jane Ashton, has stated her gratitude to both Noel Gallagher and The Connor Brother, saying: “We’re enormously grateful to our ambassadors Noel Gallagher and The Connor Brother for coming together on this special collaboration in support of Teenage Cancer Trust.

“This stunning limited-edition artwork not only raises vital funds but also shines a light on the needs of young people facing cancer.”

She continued: “Creative partnerships like this play a powerful role in helping us reach more young people with specialist care and support. We can’t thank Noel and The Connor Brothers enough for their generosity and commitment.”

The first variation of the artwork will go on sale for £100 each, limited to 300 unsigned prints. The second version will be limited to 100 prints and will come hand-signed by Noel; these will be prices at £750 each with all proceeds going directly to Teenage Cancer Trust.

Both versions are on sale from today (September 18) at 5pm. Visit here for more information.

The Scottish band will kick off a run of 13 shows next February as they celebrate their three-decade-long career. Fans can expect tracks from their extensive discography, which includes their 11th studio album, ‘The Bad Fire’, which arrived earlier this year.

Opening up in their home country of Scotland on February 12 at Paisley Town Hall, the alternative post-rock band will spend the following three weeks heading throughout the UK with dates in Birmingham, Brighton, Manchester and more.

Since their formation in Glasgow in 1995, Mogwai have been one of the most influential post-rock and electronic bands in the UK. The release of their debut album, ‘Mogwai Young Team’, in 1997 cemented them as cult heroes in the alternative world. After spending years building an impressive discography, they finally achieved the feat of topping the UK Album Chart with 2021’s ‘As The Love Continues’ 

Whether the announcement of this new tour leads to more new music being released by the band remains unseen, but their 30-year long discography is sure to be enough of a selling point either way.

Tickets for the tour go on sale this Friday (September 19) and are available to purchase from here.

Multiple big names – including Florence Pugh, Paul Weller and Eric Cantona – will appear at the OVO Wembley Arena this Wednesday (September 17), with comedian Guz Khan being announced as the host.

In a newly released statement, Khan said: “When you see kids in Gaza facing bombs instead of books, you realise this can’t be normalised. That silence isn’t an option. That’s why this concert matters. ‘Together For Palestine’ is about solidarity, love – and saying we see you, we stand with you. 

“When I got the call asking me to host, it was a no-brainer. This is about using my platform to back justice, and reminding people that standing up for humanity is everyone’s job.”

Although tickets for the massive event are sold out, people will still be able to watch the UK’s largest fundraising concert for Gaza. Beginning at 7pm on Wednesday, the whole show will be livestreamed on YouTube. Merchandise is also available to buy from the ‘Together For Palestine’ online shop.

100% of the money raised from the gig will be distributed to Palestine-led organisations such as Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, Taawon and Palestine Medical Relief Service.

Brian Eno announced the first wave of artists last month – with Damon Albarn, Bastille and Greentea Peng among those to be confirmed. Eno said in a statement at the time: “In the face of the horrors of Gaza, silence becomes complicity. Artists have always helped societies to point out injustice and imagine better futures. That’s why this concert matters. It’s time for us to come together – not just to raise our voices, but to reaffirm our shared humanity.”

Another new name announced includes singer-songwriter Neneh Cherry, as she opened up about the importance of such an event, saying: “As an artist and a mother, right now I feel helpless, guilty, angry, ashamed, and a million feelings beside. How can this be happening in 2025?”

She continued: “This is not a natural disaster – it is a man-made blight on humanity. All of us across the world have a collective responsibility to do what we can to stop the bombs and bullets. As artists, I believe our music can cut through the silence of complicity. ‘Together For Palestine’ is about turning sound into solidarity – our way of saying compassion matters, and every child deserves to grow up in peace and possibility.”

‘Together For Palestine’ takes place this Wednesday (September 17) from OVO Wembley Arena and will be streamed live on YouTube. Head here to purchase merchandise from the official store to support the cause.

The shows will kick off at Portsmouth Guildhall on December 8 before wrapping things up at the Barbican in York just two days before Christmas. Tickets will go on sale on September 18 and can be found here.

The newly announced tour will coincide with an upcoming album of the same name, due to hit the shelves on September 26. Joining Plant on the project is the band he has been touring with since 2019, which includes singer Suzi Dian, drummer Oli Jefferson, guitarist Tony Kelsey, cellist Barney Morse-Brown and banjo and string player Matt Worley.

The Led Zeppelin legend has described the upcoming album as a “song book of the lost and found” which he has been working on since the Coronavirus pandemic, with the folk-inspired sound being recorded in studios across the Cotswolds and Welsh borders.

Plant and co. will begin the tour in North America throughout November before coming back over the pond to play the ten festive dates throughout December.

The full tour dates are as follows: 

December:

08 – Portsmouth Guildhall

09 – Eastbourne Congress Theatre

11 – London Royal Festival Hall

14 – Birmingham Symphony Hall

15 – Manchester Apollo

17 – Glasgow Royal Concert Hall

18 – Edinburgh Usher Hall

21 – Middlesborough Town Hall

22 – Newcastle 02 City Hall

23 – York Barbican

Joining Plant and his band on the tour will be Burr Island, who have been confirmed as special guests for the tour. The alternative folk duo have previously received high praise from the likes of Paul Weller and Pete Townshend.

The upcoming album, ‘Saving Grace’, will feature a collection of classic songs written by the likes of Blind Willie Johnson, Memphis Minnie, Martha Scanlan and Mimi Parker. One particular song on the upcoming record will standout to Bob Dylan fans, with the folk hero covering ‘Gospel Plough’ frequently in his early years.

‘Saving Grace’ is available to pre-order now from here with a release date set for September 26. The accompanying tour will hit the British Isles in December with tickets going on sale on September 18. Fans who have pre-ordered a copy of the upcoming album will be eligible for the early access sale to tour tickets, from September 15.

The Wembley Arena show has been curated by Brian Eno, Khaled Ziada, Khalid Abdalla and Tracey Seaward where they have aimed to enlist performances from “artists, musicians and people whom silence feels impossible”.

Due to take place on September 17, the first wave of artists was announced earlier this month with the likes of Damon Albarn, Bastille, Greentea Peng, King Krule and many more signing up to appear and perform at the benefit concert.

There was also a wave of Palestinian artists announced to be performing at the show, including Adnan Joubran, Faraj Suleiman and Nai Barghouti.

Legendary producer and organiser of the event, Brian Eno, said that “every penny donated” will go to supporting Palestinian partners through Choose Love, which is a UK charity aimed at “supporting local humanitarians in conflict zones”. However, Eno did also state that it is not only about the financial support, as it is all about “sending a message of love and solidarity to the people of Palestine – they haven’t been forgotten.”

Even more names have now been announced, ranging from a-list actors to trip-hop icons. The likes of Louis Theroux, Benedict Cumberbatch and Guy Pearce will appear at the event, with it currently unclear what performance they will be putting on. 

These massive celebrities may be outshone though by the appearance of Holocaust survivor, Stephen Kapos, who is sure to send a powerful message on September 17.

Perhaps the most exciting piece of music news coming from the event is the surprise inclusion of British electronic band Portishead. Although the trip-hop pioneers will not be appearing in person, they have recorded a special one-off performance of their 1994 single ‘Roads’ with a string quarter, which will be aired during the gig.

Many of the newly announced acts have released statements, sharing similar sentiments of horror and condemnation at what is happening in Palestine.

Portishead shared in a press release that they were “incredibly honoured” to stand with Palestine, whilst The Brutalist actor Guy Pearce stated: “I am utterly heartbroken every day witnessing the atrocities inflicted upon the innocent people of Palestine.

“It’s hard not to feel helpless. Being part of this concert will enable me to share my heart with others who also see the injustice in these horrific crimes. More importantly it enables me to show my support for and to the people of Gaza, and all those subjected to this brutal genocide. Hopefully this concert encourages more people to stand up and speak.”

You can find any remaining tickets for the gig on September 17 at OVO Wembley Arena here, with 100% of ticket sales going to the UK charity Choose Love.

The 69 year-old founding member of Madness announced the new on Facebook last Friday (August 29), as he shared that he was optimistic about the future and plans to return to the stage next year.

On the Facebook post, Foreman described what led to the diagnoses and seemed in positive spirits. The statement started with Foreman explaining how upper back pain led to an MRI scan: “Earlier this year I had severe pain in my upper back and shoulders. On the 28th of June we played a show in France and it had become unbearable. I had an MRI scan at the end of June and they found a tumour on my spine.”

He continued: “On the 4th of July I went to the Royal Sussex and had all sorts of stuff done to me, I had radiotherapy which blasted it and stopped the pain. I actually had a Spinal Tap too – tock n roll!”

He later went into more detail about the illness and when he expects to be back on stage with his band mates: “What I’ve got is a form of cancer called myeloma. It’s treatable but not curable. When I get it into remission (I will!) I should be able to get back to normal life. Some people have had this for 20 years or more. I have a long way to go before I get back onstage but I am aim to be back next year.

“One of the worst side effects is that I can’t drink alcohol but I’ve mastered a non alcoholic Margarita and those zero alcohol beers ain’t too bad these days.”

Madness announced a 2025 UK ‘Hits Parade’ tour earlier this year which kicks off in Sheffield on December 4. Although the tour will go ahead as planned, Foreman revealed that he will not be participating in it as he joked: “They’ve worked really hard and the shows looked great, I don’t know how they did it without me, to be fair.”

The ‘Baggy Trousers’ icons will head to Glasgow, Leeds, Newcastle, Cardiff, Birmingham and more before ending the tour with a homecoming show at London’s The 02 on December 20.

You can find any remaining tickets for Madness’ December tour here.

The Britpop icons are currently on the North American leg of their tour, after multiple nights in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin. 

Speaking on BBC Radio Manchester’s Mad For Oasis show, Anaïs spoke about attending the first twelve shows before having to take a break from the gigs, saying: “I’m knackered, I don’t know how my dad and uncle do it when they’re actually working on stage every night.”

The 25 year-old daughter of Noel Gallagher – who was 9 years-old when Oasis originally split up in 2009 – then went on to speak about just how much she is enjoying the shows: “It’s been great. One of my friends said to me, ‘Are you not getting bored?’ And I’m like, I could never get bored of the shows, they’re just that good that I have an amazing time.”

She then went on to explain how the Poznan is usually the highlight of her night, seeing different friends each show taking part in the signature Manchester City FC fan move where the whole stadium turns their back, links arms with their neighbours and bounces up and down: “It’s so funny, every time I bring my friends, they’re like ‘What are we doing?’ And I’m just like, put your drinks down. They’re like ‘Why am I putting my drink down?’ I’m like, just you wait.”

Although it has been a mostly great time for both Anaïs and everyone in attendance, she did explain the one thing that she struggled with during the shows: “The only thing that’s quite draining about being on tour is the amount of people I need to talk to.

“I’m a good daughter, I’m a good host, so I want to make sure everybody’s in their seats and everybody’s got a drink and everybody knows where the fire exits are and like where they need to be and that kind of thing, but that can get a bit tiring after a while.”

Oasis are currently at the start of their North American tour which kicked off in Toronto last weekend. They will now head to Chicago, East Rutherford, Pasadena and Mexico City before heading back to Wembley Stadium for two final nights in the UK.  Later in the year they will conclude the tour with shows in South Korea, Japan, Australia, Argentina, Chile and Brazil.
