Oasis Dig Out Your Soul Sheet Music Free

The new Dig Out Your Soul album doesn't hit the shelves until 6th October, but Oasis fans across the world are set to get an exclusive preview of 'Dig Out Your Soul', in a groundbreaking partnership between Big Brother Recordings and music magazine NME supported by Arts Council England and Guitar Hero.

Oasis have teamed up with NME in a musical first, which will see the magazine release the sheet music and lyrics to three brand new album tracks - 'Bag It Up', 'The Turning' and '(Get Off Your) High Horse Lady' in an exclusive companion disc give-away. Packaged as an official collectable item featuring a unique Big Brother Recordings catalogue number, the Oasis 'NME Dig Out Your Soul Songbook' will be free with NME's September 17th issue and will also include a CD-Rom packed full of exclusive content and artwork.

We are inviting fans from around the world to play the as-yet unheard tracks themselves by filming their efforts and uploading them to a dedicated microsite housed at www.oasisinet.com/digoutyoursoulsongs.

Fans who are unable to buy NME can download the sheet music from this website too.

Noel Gallagher said, 'The gift of music is very special... and anything that can bring music into a kid's life is an incredible thing.'

Fans, are encouraged to interpret the new tracks in your own personal style on whichever instruments you please and Big Brother Recordings have put together a very special prize for the best entry. A lucky winner will be personally chosen by the band and will win a unique VIP experience to the Oasis gig of their choice anywhere in the world, including travel and accommodation. Additionally, the fan that receives the most views will win a trip to see Oasis play live at a venue local to them plus X-Box, 32" Plasma screen TV and copy of the latest Guitar Hero Game 'Guitar Hero World Tour'.

Third place will be chosen by NME Editor Conor McNicholas and the fan will be awarded an exclusive, limited edition Dig Out Your Soul Box Set. Conor McNicholas, NME Editor said: 'We are ecstatic that NME has been able to work with Oasis to give our readers the very first taste of 'Dig Out Your Soul'. The songbook really does mark a world first in including fans in the excitement of a new album release. With Arts Council England on board helping kids pick up instruments, this covermount could inspire and enable a new generation of Gallaghers right across the country.'
