Rock bad boy Liam Gallagher has announced his first London gigs as part of a UK tour with new band Beady Eye.

The group, effectively Oasis without guitarist Noel Gallagher, Liam's brother, play two dates at the Troxy in Limehouse in March next year.

Earlier this month the band gave fans a first taste of their recordings with a free download from their website.

The tour is Liam's first since the big row with his brother Noel last year which lead to his departure from Oasis.

Beady Eye will play their first show at the Barrowlands venue on March 3. Oasis played there a decade ago as part of their tenth anniversary tour.

Glasgow also has a key place in the Oasis story as it was a performance at the city's King Tut's Wah Wah Hut which led to the band being signed by Creation Records boss Alan McGee.

Beady Eye features Gallagher on vocals, as well as Gem Archer, Andy Bell and Chris Sharrock.

The live band will also feature bass player Jeff Wootton - who is currently playing with Gorillaz - and Mat Jones on keyboards.

Their tour will move on to the Manchester Apollo before London's Troxy.

Tickets go on sale at 10am Friday 26th November and are available at beadyeyemusic.com or by phone on the box office numbers supplied below.
