Oasis Be Here Now: Photography by Kevin Cummins

In celebration of the long-awaited Oasis Live ’25 Tour and their upcoming Rose Bowl performances, Musichead Gallery proudly presents Oasis: Be Here Now, early photographs by Kevin Cummins. As Oasis reunites for the first time in over 15 years, this exhibition offers a rare look back at the band’s beginnings. Be Here Now captures a foundational moment in Oasis’ early history during a time of creative and cultural emergence, when the band’s identity was still coming into focus.

This exhibition presents portraits of Oasis taken in the year following their 1993 signing with Creation Records. Set against the backdrop of 1990s Britain, Cummins’ portraits of the Gallagher brothers reveal a band still finding itself, yet already radiating the presence that would soon make them global icons. With today’s renewed appetite for authenticity and attitude in music, this exhibition offers a timely look at a band that defined both.

The exhibition will feature:

• Early, rare photographs of Oasis by Kevin Cummins, capturing the band in their formative years — available as limited edition prints for purchase.
• Signed copies of , the newly released book by Kevin Cummins chronicling the band's rise through powerful images and insider perspective.
• Exclusive, limited-edition exhibition posters, signed by the photographer and available for collectors and fans.
• An immersive gallery experience that transports viewers to 1990s Manchester, spotlighting the raw style, swagger, and spirit that defined the era.
• Curated vinyl selections for sale, including Oasis classics and records from Manchester bands also photographed by Cummins, such as Joy Division and The Smiths.

Alongside his work with Oasis, Kevin Cummins’s photographs of other seminal Manchester bands such as Joy Division and The Smiths will also be exhibited, highlighting his pivotal role in documenting the city’s vibrant music scene and shaping the visual narrative of British music and culture. As the band returns to the stage, Be Here Now offers fans a powerful reminder of where it all started giving them a chance to experience the raw formative energy of a band whose impact will live forever.

This exhibition will be on display from September 4 to October 28, 2025.
