Rock legend’s lookalike surprises fans at Boston Irish pub with live performance of band’s hit song

Fans at a Boston Irish pub experienced an unforgettable surprise when a rock legend lookalike delivered a live performance reminiscent of iconic Oasis frontman, Liam Gallagher. The incident unfolded on a Thursday night at The Dubliner Irish Pub, where patrons were treated to the band Roll With It performing the classic hit, “Wonderwall.” This unexpected performance sparked a lively debate on social media regarding the authenticity of the singer.

Oasis Cover Band Surprises Crowd

The buzz began when musician Jinty McGrath posted a TikTok video showcasing a packed venue with customers joyfully singing along. While the video suggested that the real Liam Gallagher had graced the stage, subsequent comments questioned this assertion. Turns out, the performer was a member of the cover band Roll With It, which specializes in Oasis songs.

About Roll With It

  • Founded in 2013 to celebrate the music of the Gallagher brothers.
  • Based primarily in Belfast, with performances beyond.
  • Known for their acoustic renditions of several Oasis hits.

This performance at The Dubliner highlighted the band’s ability to capture the essence of Oasis, generating excitement among fans old and new. Roll With It shared on their Facebook that they had performed at the venue, stating, “Well if it’s good enough for Ed Sheeran, it’s good enough for us.”

Oasis Reunion and Legacy

Meanwhile, the actual Liam Gallagher has been busy with Oasis’ long-awaited reunion tour. Announced in August 2024, this marks the first reunion of the Gallagher brothers in 15 years. Oasis, which skyrocketed to fame with the release of their debut album, “Definitely Maybe,” in 1994, went on to produce numerous hits. “Wonderwall,” one of their most famous songs, was featured on their second album, “(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?” released in 1995.

Major Highlights in Oasis’s Career

  • “Definitely Maybe” became the fastest-selling debut album in British history.
  • “(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?” achieved quadruple platinum status in the U.S.
  • Other notable tracks include “Don’t Look Back in Anger,” “Champagne Supernova,” and “Live Forever.”

Although the band has reunited for this tour, their manager, Alec McKinlay, has clarified there are no plans for new music. The current tour continues through Europe, Asia, Australia, and South America, wrapping up at the end of November 2025.

In summary, while Roll With It brought a piece of rock history to The Dubliner, the real Liam Gallagher continues to embrace his legacy with a reunion that resonates with fans across the globe.
