Sky Arts orders Noel Gallagher performance
By Nik Roseveare
As music lovers eagerly await the return of gigs and festivals, Sky Arts has announced a raft of
new programmes dedicated to the UK music scene which will bring a number of iconic
musicians into living rooms, including Noel Gallagher, The Who, Chrissie Hynde and Paul Weller.
The new original commissions are:
Noel Gallagher – Out of the Now: the legendary songwriter presents an up-close performance of
music and storytelling from London’s Duke of York’s Theatre. Backed by his full band, Gallagher
will perform ten tracks spanning his career in Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds and Oasis, and
walk us through some of the significant moments in his own life and career which continue to
define British pop culture. The show will air on a date TBC in June.
The Live Revival: a new three-part series bringing together world class acts and breakthrough
artists to shine a light on those hard-hit small music venues around the UK which are the beating
heart of our music scene. Join musicians including Paul Weller, Little Simz, The Fratellis, James
and The Charlatans as they revisit the regional venues they gigged in at the start of their careers
to give exclusive one-off performances in a bid to spotlight the much-loved pubs and clubs which
are increasingly under threat.
