Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds will release their new album ‘Council Skies’ next June 2nd 2023.
After the release of the singles ‘Pretty Boy’ and ‘Easy Now’, the Mancunian singer finally announced the day of the release of his next album.
‘Council Skies’ was recorded at Noelโsย own Lone Star Sound Recording Studiosย in London.
Speaking of the album, Noel Gallagher says:
ย โItโs going back to the beginning. Daydreaming, looking up at the sky and wondering about what life could beโฆ thatโs as true to me now as it was in the early โ90s. When I was growing up in poverty and unemployment, music took me out of that,โย he says.ย โTop of the Pops on TV transformed your Thursday night into this fantasy world, and thatโs what I think music should be. I want my music to be elevating and transforming in some way.โ
The artwork, shot by renowned Manchester photographerย Kevin Cummins, sees Noel Gallagherโs Highย Flying Birdsโ live equipmentย setupย placed on theย original centre spot of what was Maine Road Football Stadium, with this year marking 100 years since the ground was opened as the former home of Noelโs beloved Manchester City FC.
