How Paul Gallagher Is Connected With Oasis

Paul is a year older than Oasis’s Noel Gallagher and seven years older than Liam. He has never been involved with the band.

According to the BBC, the three brothers did grow up together in Burnage, Manchester. Paul has most recently worked as a photographer and a DJ.

In 1996, he released the book Brothers: From Childhood to Oasis, The Real Story, a collection of stories about growing up with Noel and Liam.

“It’s hard for me to talk about my brother Noel,” Paul writes in one of the chapters. “Although I can’t recollect a time when he wasn’t around, he doesn’t encourage closeness. You certainly wouldn’t say he was loud; in fact, he’s probably shyer than either myself or Liam until he gets to know somebody. “
