Liam Gallagher and John Squire Drop a Tease for New Psychedelic Single 'Just Another Rainbow'

Liam Gallagher, known for his time with Oasis, and John Squire, of Stone Roses fame, have just given fans a sneak peek into their upcoming collaboration with a teaser for their new single 'Just Another Rainbow'. This track is part of a bigger project, a full album that the duo is working on together.

Collaboration Confirmed

Last month, Gallagher and Squire made their partnership official after hinting at it for a while. They've set the release date for 'Just Another Rainbow' on January 5, 2024, and are offering pre-orders for the 7” vinyl and pre-saves online now.

A Glimpse into Psychedelia

The teaser shared on their social media channels gives listeners a taste of Squire's psychedelic guitar sounds mixed with Gallagher's distinct vocals. The two appear in the clip sporting their iconic parkas against vibrant backgrounds, adding to the psychedelic vibe of the track.

Meanings and Expectations

According to Squire, the single could be about the feeling of disappointment, with an ultimately uplifting twist. Without wanting to pin down a single interpretation, he invites listeners to find their own meaning in the song.

Gallagher praises Squire not just for his guitar skills but also for his songwriting, stating that there's a lack of Squire's music in the world. He expresses excitement about the new work, noting that the tunes are strong enough to impress even when stripped down to acoustic versions.

Anticipation for Live Shows

While 'Just Another Rainbow' is the first release from their much-anticipated album, there's talk of more music and possibly even live performances to come. Fans are eagerly awaiting what the rest of the year will bring from this iconic pairing.

Past Collaborations and Influences

The two have a history that goes back to the early Oasis days. They have previously collaborated, with Squire contributing to the song 'Love Me and Leave Me' by his band The Seahorses, which toured with Oasis. Their present work is influenced by a wide range of musical legends across various genres.

The recording process saw them join forces with producer Greg Kurstin in Los Angeles, accompanied by notable musicians like Joey Waronker on drums. Gallagher and Squire are drawing from a deep well of musical history, creating something new yet familiar.

A Bond Over Music

Gallagher's admiration for Squire and the Stone Roses goes back to his teenage years, marking a significant influence on his decision to pursue music. Their shared love for the craft and respect for each other's talents fuels this current project.

Looking Forward

As fans and fellow musicians look on, the anticipation for the full album grows. Even Bonehead, Gallagher's ex-bandmate from Oasis, has teased that the music they're creating is exceptional.

With the upcoming release of 'Just Another Rainbow', this duo is setting the stage for what could be one of this year's most intriguing musical ventures.
