Tony Mc Carroll founding member & former Drummer of Oasis audience reaction from Dublin Q & A Show in the Sugar Club in Dublin 2019
Bio
In 1991, five wannabe Mancunian musicians came together and cracked the spark that ignited the explosion which became Oasis. The band went from obscurity to a global phenomenon in the space of a year, achieving world-wide recognition and selling over 70 million records. What started out as five young lads with a common dream of becoming rock stars eventually disintegrated into in-fighting, clashes of egos, and financial disputes. In 1995, following the release of Definitely Maybe – the fastest-selling debut of all time – things came to a head and drummer Tony McCarroll left the band.
In this candid and hilarious live podcast, Tony tells one of the most in-depth rock ‘n’ roll stories of modern times. He reveals the truth about the early years before the band was even formed; he tells of the drinking and drug consumption. Plus, he talks of his much-publicized rift with Noel Gallagher. Tony’s recollections include stories involving David Beckham, Prince, Eric Cantona and John McEnroe.

Biography
When Bono stated recently, “I think she has one of the greatest voices the human ear has ever experienced”, he was heralding what many people know already about Moya Brennan. She sings like nothing you’ve ever heard before! So it makes sense that her live solo shows – with all the musicality and power of Clannad but with added, heart-warming intimacy – should be such a rich and moving experience. Her effortless vocals and timeless music pay homage not only to her vibrant traditional Irish heritage but also her grasp of contemporary forms.
With Clannad, she rose to prominence with a pioneering approach to traditional music which has garnered them 15 million record sales worldwide and a string of awards, including a Grammy in 1998. Their sound has since become the benchmark for the Celtic music genre.Sister Enya joined Clannad for a time before pursuing her own successful career.
Moya’s solo career has continued that success with 8 albums to her credit and more in the pipeline. Her live show has developed into a visual (as well as sound) spectacle with rhythm, atmosphere, and vibrant harmony.
Besides her solo work, Moya has been much in demand for a number of other projects and is both vociferous and active in her championing of Irish arts and culture abroad. Her career to date includes 25 albums, numerous film scores and she has sung with many great artists, including The Chieftains, Paul Brady, Bruce Hornsby, Michael McDonald, and, of course, Bono.
Her voice continues to be in demand with other collaborators including the Colours release with Ryan Vail and Elma Orkestra, Saltwater with Chicane DJ Roger Shah, and Trance Wax. The Irish Women in Harmony collective, of which Moya was an active member, scored groundbreaking hits during 2020 whilst also highlighting the role of women musicians and artists in the business.
“Ireland is changing rapidly but one thing that remains constant is our love of music and wanting the whole world to hear it. I love being part of that”, says Moya.
Timeless, elemental, and carried heavenwards in a soulful breath, Moya Brennan‘s voice reaches out to the farthest places but still touches the soul. She sings with an angel’s voice, arousing a passion in every listener. Her music refreshes and heals, exciting the senses, bringing a sense of calm to tired hearts. Always fresh, forever just a dream away Moya captures the essence of her homeland in all its cascading beauty, mystery, and contradictions. Yet she sings from the heart to a world where hope, faith, and joy are not just a dream. Through her long career, through school halls, folk clubs, festivals, discos, churches, the world’s most renowned concert halls she has traveled purposefully and always focused. The power of her whispered tones and the beauty of her music touch the soul.
