Snail Mail, a.k.a. Lindsey Jordan, is a long-proclaimed fan of Oasis. The musician paid tribute to the recently-reunited Manchester band during her show at Central Park’s SummerStage in New York this week, performing a cover of the group’s 1994 single “Supersonic.”
After performing the grungy song during the show, which also featured Tim Heidecker and Fenne Lily, Jordan shouted, “Welcome back, Oasis.”
Jordan has covered Oasis before, including renditions of “Wonderwall” and “Live Forever.” She shared an Instagram story of herself earlier this week anticipating buying tickets for Oasis’ 2025 tour, which they announced to extreme fervor on Tuesday.
In 2021, Jordan told Entertainment Weekly that she puts on Oasis to get pumped up before a show. “I love Oasis,” she said. “Listening to them gets my head in the game. And I f—ing love the 1975. I feel like you’ve got to have a certain attitude when you get on the stage — I’ve got to put on the face right before — and the 1975 puts me in that place. It’s very confident music, catchy and full of attitude. I don’t know what it is about British people and rock music. They just do it a little cooler.”
Last month, Jordan unveiled her cover of the Smashing Pumpkins classic “Tonight Tonight.” The track was originally recorded for Jane Schoenbrun’s critically acclaimed film, I Saw the TV Glow, in which Jordan made her acting debut.
The cover marked her first new release since dropping last year’s Valentine (Demos) EP. That four-song set featured a few early versions of songs off her celebrated 2021 LP Valentine, plus a new tune, “Easy Thing.”
Snail Mail embarked on a short tour this month starting on Aug. 26 at the Prescott Parks Art Festival in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. It continues through Sept. 8, wrapping at the Fillmore in Philadelphia.
