Chris Sharrock is the power behind Oasis and has without doubt established an international reputation as a leading drummer with one of the top pop acts in the world.

Since his career began over two decades ago, Chris has built up an impressive back catalogue which includes playing on the first real Britpop classic, "There She Goes" by The La’s and recording one of the most popular songs of the 90s, "Three Lions On A Shirt" by Baddiel, Skinner and the Lightening Seeds. 

Chris began working with Robbie Williams in 1997 and performed on his triple platinum debut solo album “Life Thru A Lens”.  Since then Chris has gone on to perform at some of the biggest live concerts in recent years including Robbie’s three consecutive shows at Knebworth, England where the band perfomed to over 375,000 fans. Chris was also involved in the first ever televised High Definition live performance with Robbie in September 2006.

Chris has also worked with Karl Wallinger & World Party, The Lightening Seeds, Terry Hall, Dave Stewart and Lou Reed.

In 2008 Chris took up the driving seat with British rockers Oasis performing recently at Heaton Park, Manchester and sell-out shows at Wembley Stadium, London. Oasis are also the headline act at this year's V-Fest and will close their tour in Milan at the I-Day festival.
