Kasabian's Tom Meighan Gives Beady Eye The Seal Of Approval

November 19, 2010
Kasabian's Tom Meighan Gives Beady Eye The Seal Of ApprovalKasabian frontman Tom Meighan has given his pal Liam Gallagher's band Beady Eye his music seal of approval.

The singer who has heard a selection of the band's songs, believes that Beady Eye will blow fans away with their debut album.

"Liam came to my room about three months ago and put it on a little stereo and you know I’m just buzzing for him," Tom said to Absolute Radio.

He added: "He’s really done something different from Oasis so I’m really pleased he’s getting out there. His album’s fantastic and its not Oasis any more, it’s Liam’s band."

Meanwhile, Kasabian are set to headline the Isle of Wight Festival 2011 alongside Pulp, Foo Fighters and Kings Of Leon.
