Catfish & The Bottlemen frontman Van McCann has revealed the US liken his band with Britpop stars Oasis, but with 'better manners'.
McCann was interviewed on Annie Mac's show on BBC Radio 1 earlier this week where he discussed the band's recent world tour and successes: "We've been on tour in Australia, Japan and America. We're gonna be massive and take over the world, it's been crazy. We're bigger than The Beatles! No, only joking."
Van McCann added, "They're excited because we're young. If you go over to America and you're an English band, you've already earned respect. All the critics over there keep calling 'Oasis, but with better manners'. I'll happily take that."
He went on to discuss the group's future plans which will see them returning to the studio to work on the follow-up to 2014's The Baclcony: "I've just been around the world once, we're going to do it again in a couple of months, plus a new album."
