SUMMARY:The Long Play Sessions: A Sound So Very Loud • The story of Oasis with Ted Kessler and Hamish MacBain
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an unmissable night celebrating the music\, madness\, and enduring legacy of Oasis — one of Britain’s most explosive and influential bands.\nThrough the lens of A Sound So Very Loud — the definitive new book by acclaimed music journalists Ted Kessler and Hamish MacBain — this immersive evening dives deep into the songs\, stories\, and chaos that defined a generation. \nThe evening will be hosted by Daniel Rachel\, former musician-turned-award-winning and bestselling author whose previous works include: Isle of Noises: Conversations with Great British Songwriters\, Walls Come Tumbling Down: The Music & Politics of Rock Against Racism\, 2 Tone and Red Wedge and most recently This Ain’t Rock ‘n’ Roll: Pop Music\, The Swastika and The Third Reich (nominated for The Penderyn Music Book prize). \nThe night includes:\n🎤 Book Talk & Q&A\nGo behind the music with two writers who were there from the start. From Supersonic to Champagne Supernova\, uncover the real stories behind Oasis’s biggest hits and the creative friction that made them legendary. Signed copies of A Sound So Very Loud will be available for purchase. \n🧠 Oasis Quiz\nThink you know your Morning Glory from your Be Here Now? Prove it. Test your Oasis knowledge for a chance to win prizes and bragging rights. \n🎧 Listening Party\nLose yourself in the anthems\, deep cuts\, and hidden gems that shaped the Britpop era. Expect nostalgia\, sing-alongs\, and maybe even a surprise or two. \n👥 About the Authors\nHamish MacBain\nA former writer at NME from 2004 to 2010\, MacBain had a front-row seat to the breakup of Oasis. He penned the words in the band’s final official tour programme and was en route to review their last UK show when it was cancelled. He co-authored Any Road Will Get Us There (If We Don’t Know Where We’re Going) with Noel Gallagher in 2018\, and his sleevenotes for the Be Here Now reissue were featured in the Chasing the Sun: 1993–1997 Oasis exhibition. \nTed Kessler\nKessler was on staff at NME from 1993 to 2003 before joining Q magazine\, where he worked for sixteen years\, including four as editor. He first interviewed Oasis in 1994 around their debut single Supersonic\, and his final interview with the band was in Amsterdam in 2009\, just before their split. Since then\, he’s written five Liam Gallagher cover interviews and remains one of the most trusted voices on the band’s legacy. \nThe Long Play Sessions\nThis event forms part of The Long Play Sessions\, a curated series hosted by ICMP celebrating some of the most influential voices writing about music today. Each session goes beyond the page\, offering live conversation\, cultural context and creative insight into the stories that shape music history. \nWe look forward to welcoming you to The Long Play Sessions for an essential evening exploring one of the loudest\, boldest and most influential moments in British music history.
