Oasis' Liam Gallagher to release first solo album, launch new tour this fall

Oasis lead singer Liam Gallagher will undertake his first solo tour of the U.S. and Canada this fall, in support of his debut solo album, "As You Were," which is set for release on Oct. 6.

The tour is slated to open Nov. 13 in San Francisco, which is the closest it is scheduled to get to Southern California. So far only nine dates have been announced on the two-week run of shows that will take Gallagher to Denver, Minneapolis, Chicago, Toronto, Boston, New York, Washington and Philadelphia.

The album will be released in multiple formats, including standard and deluxe digital versions, CD and vinyl.

"I didn't want to be reinventing anything or going off on a space jazz odyssey," Gallagher said about the album in a statement. "It's the (John) Lennon 'Cold Turkey' vibe, The Stones, the classics. But done my way, now."

The first single from the album, "Wall of Glass," was released last month.

Tickets for the tour go on sale Thursday, June 29, but can be ordered in advance. More information is available at Gallagher's official website.
