Liam Gallagher's forthcoming tour is becoming a family affair.

On Sunday, the British singer-songwriter, 51, announced that his son Gene's band Villanelle will be supporting him on the Definitely Maybe 30 Years Tour this summer.

After a fan asked what he thinks of "Genes band" on X (formerly known as Twitter), Liam replied that they were "good" and shared some new information.

"[They're] good I’m gonna put them on 1st for DM tour," he wrote on the social media platform.

According to Gene's modeling bio, Villanelle is a new project launching this year. While there is no official music out, the band, "will be playing throughout this years’ British festival season, releasing music as they go along," per the website.

In fan-posted footage of Villanelle, Gene, 22, appears to be on lead vocals and guitar.

In October, Liam announced the Definitely Maybe 30 Years Tour tour in an Instagram post — a small 2024 string of shows where he will perform former band Oasis' debut LP, Definitely Maybe.

"I'm bouncing around the house to announce the Definitely Maybe Tour. The most important album of the ‘90s bar none. I wouldn't be anywhere without it and neither would you, so let’s celebrate together LG x," he wrote alongside a tour poster.

The tour is set to kick off on June 2 in Sheffield and will run through June 27, where it concludes in Manchester.

Liam will also be performing in cities including London, Dublin and Glasgow, Scotland, along the way.

The Definitely Maybe tour will be the first time the "Wall of Glass" musician performed Definitely Maybe since the band split in 2009.

Definitely Maybe, which was released in 1994, turned Oasis into one of Britpop's biggest stars, producing classics like "Supersonic," "Live Forever" and "Slide Away."

At the time, it was the fastest-selling debut album in the U.K. ever, and it sold 8.5 million copies worldwide.

While it appears unlikely Liam's brother and Oasis bandmate Noel will be joining him onstage for any of the dates, he spoke with SPIN in May about the prospect of performing the band's debut album.

“If Liam wants to do the show, great. He’s got to make a living and all of that,” he told the outlet. “Keep the flame alive. It’s not something I particularly would be able to put my heart and soul into.”

After announcing the Definitely Maybe tour, Liam told fans who inquired about Noel's presence: "He’s been asked and he’s refused."
