KASABIAN will make their anticipated return to Swindon tonight.

The award-winning band, who are currently tucked away in the studio working on their sixth album, will take a break from recording to rock up the Oasis.

Coincidentally, Sergio Pizzorno, guitarist and songwriter with Kasabian, was hugely influenced by Noel Gallagher from the rock giants Oasis.

“When I was 14 Brit Pop was the centre of the world and Noel was my music hero initially," he said. "He inspired me more than any teacher or historical figure.’’

One of the early highlights for Sergio was Noel jumping on stage to play with his band, when they performed at the Edinburgh Hogmanay street party in 2007.

Kasabian wowed the Swindon crowds when they came to the Radio 1's Big Weekend in 2009 and again later that year at the Oasis Centre.

The current line-up of the band are Sergio, lead singer Tom Meighan, Chris Edwards on bass and Ian Matthews on drums. Ian was in Swindon back in March when he played drums for the Denny Illett Trio at a jazz night in Baker Street, Old Town.

Kasabian have five albums under their belt, four of which shot to number one in the charts, and they have notched up hit singles with songs such as Club Foot, Empire, Days Are Forgotten, Eez-eh, Processed Beats, LSP and Shoot The Runner. Their hit single Fire was used as the theme song for the English Premier League for the 2010-2011 season.

The band have a huge fan base all over the world, which includes a fair number of celebrities such as Noel Fielding from The Might Boosh. Noel appeared in the promotional video with the band for Vlad The Impaler.

A mix of old favourites and new songs will fill the Oasis with doors opening at 7.30pm. For last-minute tickets or for more information go to https://oasis.cloudvenue.co.uk/kasabian.
