See the support acts playing alongside Oasis at their 3 Scottish shows

While fans across Scotland are clamouring to see Oasis up close, some will also be excited to see the supporting acts joining them on the Murrayfield stage.

The popular band from the 1990s has been on a reunion tour across the UK, with the group having already played at Cardiff and their hometown, Manchester.

With Oasis playing three shows at Murrayfield on Friday, August 8, Saturday, August 9 and Tuesday, August 12, here is everything you need to know about the support acts.

Who is supporting Oasis at their Edinburgh gigs?

Richard Ashcroft and Cast will both support Oasis for their Scottish tour dates.

Discussing this, Richard said:  “As a fan from day one, I was buzzing for many reasons when the news of Oasis’s return was announced.

“I can say with no exaggeration that the song-writing talent of Noel, and Liam’s pure spirit as a lead singer, helped to inspire me to create some of my best work.

“It was the perfection of Live Forever that forced me to try and write my own.

“They dared to be great, made the dreams we had real, and I will always remember those days with joy.

“Now it’s time to create more memories, and I’m ready to bring it."

Richard Ashcroft is an English singer and songwriter who is best known for being the frontman for the legendary rock band, The Verve.

Hailing from Liverpool, Cast is a band founded by John Power and Peter Wilkinson after leaving their respective groups, The La's and Shack.
