Why Me? Why Not

Liam Gallagher’s eagerly anticipated second album Why Me? Why Not. was written by Liam with producers Andrew Wyatt and Greg Kurstin, and recorded in Los Angeles and at RAK Studios in London. Wyatt and Kurstin previously contributed writing and production to Liam’s all-conquering debut solo album As You Were, and Liam was keen to get even deeper with them this time. As a result, Why Me? Why Not. is a clear upgrade on As You Were but not a radical departure. Liam explains: I wrote some songs on my own for the last album, but this time it’s all co-writes. Reason being is I want it to be even better than ‘As You Were’. I know my strengths and I know my limitations. I’m an ok songwriter, but I’m a great singer and frontman. I want the second album to be a step-up because the hardest thing to do is to make something the same, only better. So that’s what we’ve done. • Shockwave has seen Liam Gallagher make a typically full-throttle return. Super intimate sold-out show at Hackney Round Chapel? Biblical. Premiere and release of the long-awaited As It Was’ documentary? Completed. Featured on the cover of Q, who described him as rock’s finest frontman? Naturally. • Liam Gallagher’s debut solo album As You Were was a critical and commercial smash. It debuted at #1 in the UK and top 10 in Australia. Liam was back where he belonged, selling out huge outdoor shows and earning major awards from Q, NME and GQ. Liam’s next double-bill of huge UK shows comes at the end of the month. He’ll play
