As a member of the La's, Sharrock recorded drums on the band's 1988 single, "There She Goes", considered a "founding piece of Britpop's foundation." Between 1997 and 2008, Sharrock was the drummer for Robbie Williams, appearing on the UK Albums Chart number one albums, Life thru a Lens (1997), I've Been Expecting You (1998), Sing When You're Winning (2000) and Escapology (2003).
Between 2008 and 2009, Sharrock was the touring drummer for Oasis during its Dig Out Your Soul Tour. Following the band's break-up in August 2009, Sharrock and the remaining band members, Liam Gallagher, Andy Bell and Gem Archer, reformed under the name Beady Eye, releasing two studio albums – Different Gear, Still Speeding (2011) and BE (2013) – before disbanding in October 2014. Sharrock joined Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds in 2016, reuniting him with Oasis member Noel Gallagher, and making him and Gem Archer the only members of Oasis to have been part of both Liam and Noel Gallagher's post-Oasis projects.
