Keane ask Gallagher to produce next album
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 25 August 2009
Keane frontman Tom Chaplin has said he would like Noel Gallagher to produce the band’s next album. That’s the same Noel Gallagher who once said: “No matter what direction Keane take, they’ll still be shit”.
Chaplin told 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. Whenever I go abroad people ask me what is so great about British music – and it’s that there’s room for everybody”.
