'WHEN AN ARTIST IS RELENTLESSLY AUTHENTIC, IT ALLOWS PEOPLE TO BELIEVE IN THEM AND TO BELIEVE IN THEIR WORK. AND THE GALLAGHERS BELIEVE IN EACH OTHER ONCE MORE.'

Gallagher chronicles the fall and rise again of one of the world's biggest bands: Oasis. With a focus on Noel Gallagher and Liam Gallagher's individual journeys, this absorbing biography starts from the shattered remnants of Oasis in 2009, taking fans through 15 years of high and lows as the brothers become formidable solo artists, pinpointing the significant events that allowed them to bridge their fraternal rift and stage the greatest comeback of all time.

Inside, PJ Harrison, a former label owner and artist manager (but above all Oasis fan) who spent time on the road and in the studio with the band, takes fans on a journey to the heart of Oasis and everything they stand for. Through meticulous research, exclusive interviews and inside access, Harrison strives to understand how two brothers rose from a council estate in Manchester to create the dominant musical force of their generation throughout the 1990s and 2000s and why they have such enduring legacies both together and apart.

For three decades, the question of why Liam and Noel, two brothers with the world at their feet, simply couldn't get along has fascinated the world. Gallagher aims to explore that question and offer some answers. What drove them apart in 2009, and what led to their reunion in 2024?

With a foreword from legendary Rolling Stones manager and producer, Andrew Loog Oldham, this unique telling of the Oasis story allows fans new and old to draw their own comparisons between two very different brothers; casting a new light on how they navigated fame, feuds and family to create music history before shocking the world with the reunion nobody thought could happen.

Definitely Maybe changed PJ Harrison's life. Originally from Merseyside, PJ became a huge fan of Oasis and travelled to watch their concerts throughout his teens, often arriving as early as 9am to stand in line so he could watch from at the very front. In his twenties, PJ began to work in the music industry, firstly with his own Sony JV record label (in the same group as Oasis' Creation Records) before moving into major label artist management, writing and production. PJ's world began to overlap with that of Oasis. The band took a shine to several artists he managed and took them, and PJ with them, on world tours. During this period of touring Harrison spent almost every day around the band and their crew, getting to know their management and developed friendly relationships with the band.
​
PJ has had a diverse career in the entertainment industry, spanning music, television, sports and creative direction. In music, he has worked with world renowned artists, such as Nas and Lauryn Hill, and has served as a writer, director and host for television. With a keen interest in sports, he co-founded LA football club City of Angels as well as Block Training alongside NBA legend Steve Nash. PJ lives in London. This is his first book.
