British pop-rockers Oasis [ tickets ] are coming to North America this summer for a short run of dates that will culminate with a headlining performance at Toronto's Virgin Festival.

The band will start Aug. 26 in Seattle, WA, playing its first live show in more than two years, and then move on to Canadian gigs in Vancouver, Edmonton and Calgary. Ryan Adams and the Cardinals will serve as special guests on concerts ahead of the Sept. 7 Virgin Festival. The itinerary is listed below.

Since late last year, Oasis has been holed up in London and Los Angeles studios, working on its seventh studio album with producer David Sardy. The set, due sometime this year, will follow 2005's "Don't Believe the Truth," which reached No. 12 on The Billboard 200 and spawned modern-rock hit "Lyla."

In 2006, Oasis also put out a two-disc career retrospective dubbed "Stop the Clocks," which features hits including "Wonderwall" and "Champagne Supernova," as well as B-sides such as "Acquiesce" and "Half the World Away."

Meanwhile, the Gallagher brothers recently released their first digital single, "Lord Don't Slow Me Down," which comes from the double-DVD of the same name. The film, which surfaced in October, captures Oasis' yearlong world tour to support "Don't Believe the Truth." The first disc includes a feature-length documentary and Q&A with Noel Gallagher, and the second comprises the band's homecoming concert at the City of Manchester Stadium and footage sent in by fans.

The audio and video for the song "Lord Don't Slow Me Down" are streaming at Oasis' MySpace page.
