Gene Gallagher named his own name after Kiss's Gene Simmons, which is a strange enough detail on its own — considering his actual father, Oasis's Liam Gallagher, and mother, All Saints' Nicole Appleton, gave him plenty of other options to build an identity around.
Villanelle, the band he fronts alongside guitarist Ben Taylor and bassist Jack Schiavo, deliberately doesn't sound like Britpop — "Hinge," their debut single about paranoia and sleepless nights, pulls from Nirvana and Deftones instead — and Liam Gallagher tapping them as support on Oasis's Definitely Maybe 30th anniversary tour drew immediate nepotism accusations that Liam has pushed back on directly.
