Liam Gallagher and John Squire have shared their new song Just Another Rainbow.
The track is the first to be lifted from the forthcoming collaborative project from the Oasis frontman and longtime Stone Roses guitarist, set to be unveiled later this year.
In a press release, Gallagher said, “I think John’s a top songwriter. Everyone always bangs on about him as a guitarist, but he’s a top songwriter too, man, no two ways about it as far as I’m concerned. There’s not enough of his music out there, whether it’s with the Roses or himself. It’s good to see him back writing songs and fucking good ones.
“The melodies are mega and then the guitars are a given. But I think even when you take all the fucking guitars off, you can play the songs all on acoustic and they’ll all still blow your mind.”
“To me the most obvious take on Just Another Rainbow is that it’s about disappointment, and the sentiment is that you never get what you really want,” Squire added, calling the track “one of the most uplifting tracks we’ve made together.”

The project was born of three songs sent by Squire to Gallagher in 2022 and came together at the guitarist’s studio in Macclesfield. Sessions continued in Los Angeles with producer and bassist Greg Kurstin and drummer Joey Waronker.
Although the musicians’ first collaboration, Squire joined Gallagher on stage at Knebworth Park in 2022 for a performance of Oasis’ Champagne Supernova.
