Liam Gallagher, born in Burnage in 1972, is still the most recognisable sneer in British rock, and in 2022 he was all over the radio with "Everything's Electric", a stomping, swaggering blast that sounds like a man who has never once doubted himself. That voice, nasal, snarling and oddly tender, has been doing the heavy lifting since he co-founded Oasis out of a band called the Rain and brought his older brother Noel in on lead guitar and songwriting.
Definitely Maybe in 1994, (What's the Story) Morning Glory? in 1995 and Be Here Now in 1997, the fastest-selling album in UK chart history, turned Oasis into a critical and commercial juggernaut as Britpop took hold. When Noel quit in 2009, Liam and the rest carried on as Beady Eye for two albums until 2014, and then in 2017 he finally went solo. As You Were topped the UK Albums Chart and went platinum, Why Me? Why Not topped the charts again in 2019, and C'mon You Know gave him another number one in 2022.
A reader poll in 2010 voted him the greatest frontman of all time, and an MTV Europe Music Award followed in 2019. In 2024 he teamed up with former Stone Roses guitarist John Squire for Liam Gallagher John Squire, and the chart-topping streak carried on.
