To recreate a band like Oasis, an act needs to have focus, dedication and passion - three words fitting of Owaysis. This group of like-minded musicians can flawlessly pay homage to Oasis' "absurd tonality and mighty voice". Whether your guests are fans of the band or not, Owaysis have the onstage presence to charm any audience member. Founded in 2016, this band do more than just play Oasis' songs, they become the different members from the moment they step onto the stage. Starting with Rob Kidd, or "R Kidd", his combination of swagger and steady vocals are perfectly fitting of Liam Gallagher.
But what about the other Gallagher brother? That is where Glenn Wainwright steps in. He perfectly mimics Noel Gallagher's quiet demeanour in contrast with Liam, as well as his subtle charm. True Oasis fans know that there is more to the band than just the Gallagher's, with Gem Archer, Andy Bell and Chris Sharrock making up the rest of the group.
Oasis' quickly recognisable style is credited to these instrumentalists, who carry the consistent beat and add the drawn-out guitar chords we have come to know and love. Represented by Simon Hughes, Damien Doherty and Tom Waplington, this trio plays close attention to the musical details of the band.
From the moment this band starts to play, the iconic vocals and musical composition flawlessly blend together. Every beat of the drum, guitar chord and vocal note bring the magic of Oasis to life, becoming a harmony of classic British rock. The band describes themselves as "Definitely Maybe the UK’s best tribute to Oasis", and it isn't difficult to see why. What sets Owaysis apart is their unflinching dedication, from Rob's puffer jacket and sunglasses to Tom's rhythmic drum rolls, everything about this band is utterly and completely Oasis.
