Several fans pointed out that each image seems to hold clues about the possible release of a new single on Friday, June 7, just one day after the world premiere of Gallagher’s documentary “As It Was”.
The singer also shared a picture of a billboard that reads “It’s coming round like a Shockwave, Liam Gallagher,” taken in the streets of his native Manchester, on Instagram yesterday, May 29.
