Liam Gallagher Biography: Wife, Children, Parents, Siblings, Family, Net Worth

Liam Gallagher is an English musician, singer, and songwriter. He achieved fame as the lead vocalist of the rock band Oasis from 1991 to 2009, and later fronted the rock band Beady Eye from 2009 to 2014, before starting a successful solo career in 2017.

Oasis had various line-up changes, and Gallagher and his elder brother Noel were the only constant members. One of the most recognisable figures in British rock music, Gallagher is noted for his distinctive vocal style and outspoken, arrogant, and volatile personality.

His demeanour during Oasis’ commercial peak in the mid-1990s garnered much attention from British tabloid newspapers, which often ran stories concerning his drug use and self-destructive behaviour.

Liam Gallagher was interested in joining a band called the Rain, which they agreed to rename. It became Oasis, and they invited Noel to join them as the lead guitarist. The band’s debut album, Definitely Maybe (1994), was a critical and commercial success during the emergence of Britpop.

Their second album, (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? (1995), reached the top of the album charts in many countries, and their third studio album, Be Here Now (1997), became the fastest-selling album in UK chart history.

Britpop eventually declined in popularity, and Oasis failed to revive it; however, all of their subsequent albums topped the UK charts, and they continued to tour, playing gigs to 1,000,000+ people worldwide, but particularly in Europe, and South America.

In August 2009, following Noel’s departure from Oasis, Gallagher and the remaining band members would go on to form Beady Eye, with whom he released two studio albums before they disbanded in 2014.

In 2017, Liam Gallagher began his solo career with the release of his debut solo album, As You Were (2017), which proved to be a critical and commercial success. It topped the UK Albums Chart and was the ninth fastest-selling debut album of the 2010s in the UK, with over 103,000 units sold in its first week.

In 2018, the album was certified platinum with over 300,000 units sold in the UK.[6] His second album, Why Me? Why Not, received mostly positive reviews and topped the UK charts upon its release in September 2019.

This made it his tenth chart-topping album including eight with Oasis, and it also became the fastest-selling vinyl of 2019. In March 2010, he was voted the greatest frontman of all time in a reader poll by Q magazine. In 2019, he received the MTV Europe Music Award for “Rock Icon”.

Liam Gallagher Bio

William John Paul Gallagher was born in the Longsight area of Manchester on 21 September 1972, the son of Irish immigrant parents Peggie and Thomas Gallagher.

As the youngest of three children, he has two elder brothers, Paul and Noel. Shortly after his birth, the family moved to Ashby Avenue and then Cranwell Drive in the Manchester suburb of Burnage.

As the eldest child, Paul was given his own bedroom while Liam had to share his bedroom with Noel.

When he was 10, Peggie took him and his brothers and left Thomas, whom she divorced four years later.

Although Liam maintained sporadic contact with his father throughout his teens, their issues remain unresolved; notably, while drinking at a pub after an Oasis show in Ireland during the height of their fame, Liam noticed his father from across the room and had to be calmed down by Noel.

A leaked phone call later revealed that he subsequently called his father and threatened to break his legs if he ever saw him again. The Gallagher brothers were troubled, especially in their mid-teens, and Liam often shoplifted bicycles from local shops.

Liam Gallagher was educated at St. Bernard’s RC Primary School and the Barlow Roman Catholic High School in Didsbury. Despite common reports that he was expelled at age 16 for fighting, he was actually suspended for three months.

He then returned to school, where he completed his last term and gained four GCSEs in 1990. He preferred sports at a young age, having no interest in music.

During his teens, he suffered a blow to the head with a hammer from a student at a rival school, which he credits with changing his attitude towards music. After this incident, he became infatuated with the idea of joining a band.

He became confident in his ability to sing and began listening to bands like the Beatles, the Stone Roses, the La’s, the Who, the Kinks, the Jam, and T. Rex. In the process, he became obsessed with the Beatles’ John Lennon, and would later sarcastically claim to be Lennon reincarnated despite being born eight years prior to Lennon’s death.

Liam and Noel attended a Stone Roses benefit gig at International 2 in 1988; both brothers claim that if they had not gone to that gig, Oasis would never have happened. Liam later claimed: “That was my favourite gig of all time, killed me dead, changed me fuckin’ life.

If I hadn’t gone that night, I’d probably be sitting in some pub in Levenshulme.” He would also help Noel with his job as a roadie for Inspiral Carpets and worked as a tax collector for HM Revenue and Customs.
