In 2023, a bunch of UK rock luminaries launched a new supergroup called Mantra Of The Cosmos. The band brings Happy Mondays’ Shaun Ryder and Bez together with Ride guitarist Andy Bell and Ringo Starr’s son Zak Starkey. Until very recently, Starkey served as the Who’s touring drummer, but after some confusing back-and-forth, he appears to be out of the band. Starkey is also a former drummer for Oasis, but he won’t rejoin that band on this year’s massive stadium tour. (Andy Bell, however, does seem to be back in Oasis for that tour.) Nevertheless, Starkey’s former Oasis bandmate Noel Gallagher did come in to record a new song with Mantra Of The Cosmos.
