Keane Want Noel Gallagher To Produce Their Next Record

Keane would like Noel Gallagher to produce their next record, despite the Oasis man previously expressing his contempt for the band.

In a feud last year, Noel Gallagher said of Keane: “No matter what direction Keane take, they’ll still be shit.”

At the time, keyboardist Tim Rice-Oxley lashed out at Gallagher in response calling the Oasis man a “cunt” and saying the band are now irrelevant.

However, since covering Oasis' 'Cast No Shadow' at V Festival Chelmsford on Sunday in homage to the no show headliners, Rice-Oxley has had a change of heart.

He tells the Daily Star: “I often wonder if Noel is almost resisting the truth that Keane and Oasis are alike in a lot of respects. I think we share a lot of fans. We are both bands of the people.

“People love coming to a Keane show and an Oasis show because there’s a directness to the songs and people come together in a very communal way.

“It would be great for Noel to produce us - I offer the olive branch. We’re huge fans."
