Liam Gallagher has revealed the name of his first band following his departure from Oasis.

Beady Eye will feature Gallagher on vocals, along with former Oasis bandmates Andy Bell (bass), Gem Archer (guitar) and Chris Sharrock (drums).

The band are working on their debut album with Rolling Stones producer Steve Lillywhite.

It is not yet clear when the record will be released, although Gallagher has previously said he hoped the band could perform this year.

The singer started work on the new project following Oasis’ sudden split last August.
