EDIT: I HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT THAT THE AFTER SHOW IS JUST PAUL GALLAGHER AND NICK POWER FROM THE CORAL DOING A DJ SET. NO NOEL OR THE CORAL PLAYING LIVE THE WEBSITE WHO PUBLISHED THIS HAS GOT IT WRONG.
n Aylesbury based band have been invited to play alongside Noel Gallagher.
Palahniuk will perform during a VIP after-party at the Tiger Tiger club in Cardiff, which gets underway after Noel performs at the city’s Motorpoint Arena.
Noel will also play at the after-party on September 9, along with guitar group The Coral.
Palahniuk guitarist and writer Andy Ralph, 27, said: “This show is for all the people who have VIP tickets and people that have passes to meet him afterwards.
“The Coral are also playing and so is his brother Paul Gallagher, who is doing a DJ set.It’s a great opportunity for our band to get to play with such an iconic person in the music industry.”
The group were asked to play at the after-show party by music promoters Absent Kelly – who heard the boys’ music online and got in touch with them.
Andy said: “We have been advertising it and telling as many people as we can that we have this huge gig.
“I would say Noel’s solo stuff is slightly lighter than the Oasis stuff and we are in a similar vein. We also get compared to Feeder. We are British Indie rock music, the music that Oasis was.”
Meanwhile The trio will perform this Sunday afternoon at the Aylesbury Weekender – a free two day live music event in the town centre.
Andy believes the event is ‘fantastic for the town’, saying there are currently very few opportunities for new bands to perform original material in the area.
Palaniuk are named after the writer of Fight Club Chuck Palahniuk. The group formed in 2007
