Noel Gallagher joins supergroup with Ringo Starr’s son months before Oasis reunion

Just before Oasis hit the road, Neil Gallagher has formed a new band.

On their newest psychedelic track, Gallagher joins the supergroup Mantra Of The Cosmos, led by Sir Ringo Starr’s son. The song, titled Domino Bones (Gets Dangerous), features Gallagher alongside Happy Mondays singer Shaun Ryder on vocals, former Oasis guitarist Andy Bell, Sir Ringo’s son Zak Starkey on drums and Happy Mondays ‘ Mark “Bez” Berry on percussion.

Gallagher announced that his Britpop band, Liam and his brother, would be reunited for a 2025 world tour. According to Gallagher, “Mantra of the Cosmos is like Dylan, Dali, and Ginsberg traveling to the moon with the clangers.” Before joining Oasis in 2004 and playing drums on albums Don’t Believe The Truth and Dig Your Own Soul, Starkey first met Gallagher in a London rehearsal room in the early 1990s.

When asked about Domino Bones, Starkey said, “It’s not every day that the greatest songwriter of my generation, not to mention Shaun, the greatest beat poet of our time, sends a tune to me, and I was in a daze for a moment because it’s not something you want to f*** up.

Everyone likes how it all came together. Noel loves Shaun. Do you know what you have, he texted me? The British Bob Dylan is not f****g about because I’ve seen what Shaun does. Noel calls him the ‘ king of lyrics’. “Starkey first met Ryder in 2015 while the revival of TFI Friday was being filmed on Channel 4,” according to Ryder.

We sat down for five minutes before getting a photo, and that was it. Shaun was on the show. Then I just cold-called him about this group, which I didn’t want to be about guitars – I wanted to be about his words. He responded, “yes right away.” I asked if his mate (Bez) was going to be in it and he said ‘ He doesn’t know yet – but he is’. “

Domino Bones (Gets Dangerous) – the name of Bez’s first band – is the supergroup’s latest single after Gorilla Guerilla and X (Wot You Sayin?) in 2023 – the same year the band made its debut at Glastonbury Festival. On January 19, Starkey and the band will perform two sets at the Cavern Club, which the Beatles have only previously visited.

” Can’t believe I’ve never even been there, “he said”. There’s a great deal of family heritage at the Cavern, aside from the Beatles, my parents courted there… Who knows I may have even been conceived there. Gallagher makes an appearance on the new Mantra of the Cosmos single after the reunion with his brother.

The brothers announced their return for a long-awaited world tour in 2025 about 15 years after their explosive split, which was caused by a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris. Fans can hear the Mancunian rockers perform hits like Wonderwall, Don’t Look Back In Anger, and Stop Crying Your Heart Out live, so they can relive the group’s glory days from the 1990s.
