Now that we are aware that Oasis will perform live in 2025, who else is scheduled to join the reunion tour? Two more musicians have hinted at maybe joining the reunion, while one musician is “confirmed” to be part of it. On August 27th, brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher officially announced the return of Oasis, following their tease of the much-awaited reunion in late August. They made public a list of fourteen concert dates that will happen in the UK during the summer. These performances will be their first joint appearances since August 2009.

The Gallagher brothers are the only known members of Oasis that will participate in the reunion; nevertheless, there have been rumours circulating about other musicians attending the gigs. According to reports, the Sun has confirmation that Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs, a guitarist, will be attending the gigs.

Bonehead is confirmed. They both wanted him in the fold and he was one of the drivers of the reunion. Noel has brought in some of his band too. The Oasis family has really come back together. Bonehead is ecstatic.

Alan White, the band’s drummer from 1995 till 2004, posted a picture of a drum kit on social media that had a Union Jack flag pattern swirled on it that looked like one of Oasis‘ logos. On August 31, he uploaded the picture, barely a few days after the Gallaghers announced their reunion. The Mirror reported that guitarist Gem Archer is also expected to participate in the reunion. Archer performed with Liam Gallagher’s Beady Eye from 2009 to 2014, Oasis from 1999 to 2009, and Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds project from 2016 to the present. According to the story, Archer was asked by the Gallagher brothers to perform with them in 2025, and it was assumed that the artist would accept their offer.

None of the band is 100 percent confirmed yet, but Gem is looking very likely along with Bonehead. The key is getting people who both brothers get on with and also respect and ideally of course they would also have been in the band before too. Gem ticks all those boxes and he also contributed to the writing of some Oasis songs. He is an obvious target and it would be a huge shock if he was not on the stage for the U.K. tour. He knows the songs, he knows the band inside out and he has been on tour with the Gallaghers before and so he knows what he would be signing up for. Source of The Mirror
