"During a tour, Andrew Cushin found it amusing to cover Noel Gallagher's large Manchester City flag with a black-and-white Newcastle flag. Unsurprisingly, Gallagher did not find this act humorous."
British singer-songwriter Andrew Cushin has established a unique camaraderie with music icon Noel Gallagher, despite their shared passion for football leading to friendly rivalry.
A native of Newcastle, Cushin has garnered attention in the music industry, with Gallagher playing a significant role in his career growth. The senior Gallagher brother produced, played guitar, and sang backing vocals on Cushin's 2020 single 'Where's My Family Gone.' [5]
As Cushin's profile rose, he found himself opening for Gallagher on his summer tour in 2024, a stage where their footballing differences were brought to the fore. "I'm in a WhatsApp group with Noel, and I always let him know when Newcastle are playing Manchester City, and he lets me know when we're losing," Cushin shared with our website. [5]
The pair's banter extends to their off-stage encounters. During a Rock N Roll Circus event, Gallagher placed a large Manchester City flag next to Cushin's dressing room. In a playful move, Cushin covered the City flag with a black-and-white Newcastle flag, a prank that was not met with enthusiasm by Gallagher. [5]
As Newcastle United and Manchester City compete for a Champions League place, the WhatsApp exchanges between the two musicians promise to intensify. Cushin's debut album, 'Love Is For Everyone,' is currently available, and he plans to tour in May and June. For more information, visit [andrewcushin.os.fan].
