Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds have premiered the video for their Christmassy new song ‘Wandering Star’.
The festive video stars This Is England, Line of Duty, The Virtues and Boardwalk Empire actor Stephen Graham and his fellow actor and real-life wife Hannah Walters.
Filmed in London and directed by Dan Cadan and Scully, the video sees Graham (dressed up as Santa) team up with hard-up single mum Walters to steal from a local convenience store to ensure her children have some presents at Christmas.
Dan Cadan, who previously directed the videos for the NGHFB singles ‘Black Star Dancing’ and ‘This Is The Place’ with Scully, says: "(Graham and Walters’) performances bring further to life Noel’s brilliant music and lyrics and we hope this fills you with Christmas cheer, and strikes a chord enough for you to raise a glass to those less fortunate but equally as deserving.”
Produced by Noel himself, ‘Wandering Star’ is the second song on Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds’ new ‘Blue Moon Rising’ EP which is released on 6th March 2020.
Noel says of the track: "It was written in Abbey Road last November on the same day I wrote ‘Black Star Dancing’ (his June EP). It’s that good, it sounds like it took 5.4 people to come up with it. It’s already a live standard and we haven’t even played it yet.”
The Blue Moon Rising EP track-listing is as follows:
Blue Moon Rising
Wandering Star
Come On Outside
Blue Moon Rising (The Reflex Revision)
Blue Moon Rising (7” Mix)
Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds’ first confirmed UK show of 2020 will take place at London’s Kenwood House on Sunday 21st June. Tickets are on sale from Absolute Radio Tickets right now.
Earlier this week, Noel Gallagher said his younger brother Liam Gallagher’s tweets are a 'nail in the coffin' for a potential Oasis reunion.
