New Supergroup For Liam Fray And Miles Kane?
But with Lady Gaga? Plus, The Courteeners announce new tour dates...
The Courteeners' Liam Fray and Last Shadow Puppets' Miles Kane played a blinder of a set at last night's Winter Wonderland at the Academy in Manchester, including a cover of The Smiths 'There Is A Light That Never Goes Out'.
But Xfm was surprised to hear the duo's ambitious plans for the new year - a supergroup which would include Liam doing most of the dance routines and Miles would 'Get Gaga in on my side'.
The Courteeners frontman also revealed he was excited about his sold-out homecoming gig this Friday (December 11) at The Manchester Central where he will be performing to 10,00 people: 'I'm excited...I'm just very happy so many people want to come and see us'.
The band have also announced a huge UK tour next year and their new album 'Falcon' will be out on Febraury 22 2010.
