The Stockport band spoke to NME in a new interview about the possibility of supporting the Britpop legends following news of their reunion in late August. The Tom Ogden-led band have just released their fifth album ‘Gary‘, which saw a gaggle of famous Garys unite to promote the record.

Blossoms have been hotly tipped to support the brothers, having opened for Noel Gallagher in the past and with Liam Gallagher reportedly seeking “established acts” to support them on tour. So far, supports have only been announced for the North American leg of the reunion tour, which will see Cage The Elephant join for all dates – visit here to buy tickets.

Now, speaking to NME, Ogden has said that “nothing has been discussed, nothing has been asked,” adding: “I don’t think they’ll sort it out until next year.”

“I’d like to think our name might be in the mix because why not?,” he continued. “We’ve never shied away from saying how much they’ve influenced us. We went to watch them at Heaton Park when we were 16, and we kind of know them both.

“I’m not going to get my hopes up, though, because, at the end of the day, it’s up to them. If we get asked, the bags are packed, and we’d smash it.”

Oasis began teasing their reunion following Liam Gallagher’s headline set at Reading Festival by sharing a mysterious date on their screens. Blossoms began sharing the same teaser on their big concert screens as Liam and Noel at their Wythenshawe Park gig, prompting speculation that they might have something to do with the reunion.

Ogden told NME of how that same screen came to be, adding that the reunion was “the best-kept secret in the music industry.

“We were playing at Wythenshawe Park on Sunday, and on Saturday night, the reunion article breaks,” he said. “We’re all like, ‘This has got to be bullshit again’, but it felt a bit more legit. The next day, going to the gig, our manager calls us saying we need to show a video on the screens after the set because they’re showing it at Reading & Leeds. I’m like, ‘Is it Oasis?’ and he says, ‘I can’t tell you’. When we came offstage, we ran around to the front to see the video!”

He then went on to discuss what supporting Oasis would mean to him, saying: “Our mantra was instilled into us from Oasis. I grew up listening to them and seeing those songs being sung in the biggest stadiums. That’s what I wanted.

“Ten years on, to have done Wythenshawe, to have opened for The Stone Roses and to have your name brought up within the Oasis stuff, if you’d have told me that when I was 16, I’d have been like, ‘What the fuck’. We saw them before we were even a band. I would have never believed you.”

Blossoms previously responded to Oasis support rumours on Channel 4’s Sunday Brunch, where they repeated that they hadn’t been asked and that “I don’t even think they’ve sorted it out yet. There’s been no conversation or anything else. I think they’ll probably sort it out next year.”

Alongside Blossoms, Kasabian have been rumoured to support the band after Serge Pizzorno was spotted with Liam backstage at Reading ahead of his headline slot, along with Manic Street Preachers – who supported Oasis during their iconic Knebworth 1995 shows and recently released their new single ‘Decline & Fall‘.

In other news, Oasis have added extra dates to North American 2025 reunion tour due to “phenomenal” demand.
