Liam Gallagher 'As It Was' tells the honest and emotional story of how one of the most electrifying rock’n’roll frontmen went from the dizzying heights of his champagne supernova years in Oasis to living on the edge, ostracised and lost in the musical wilderness of booze, notoriety and bitter legal battles.
Starting again alone, stripped bare and with nowhere to hide, Liam risks everything to make the greatest comeback of all time.
Directors Charlie Lightening and Gavin Fitzgerald invite us backstage for a no-holds-barred look at the life of one of the most talked-about and charismatic artists of his generation. The film is produced by Steven Lappin and Executive Produced by Joel Kennedy and Julian Bird.
It’s been confirmed that Liam Gallagher's 'As It Was' will receive its world premiere at London’s Alexandra Palace on Thursday June 6th along with an exclusive performance that will be beamed via satellite into cinemas across the UK and Ireland.
Tickets to the premiere at Alexandra Palace are on sale from 4pm today and will be available here.
