Beady Eye will make their long-awaited US debut this coming Saturday (June 18th), when the band launch their first North American tour with a show at the Chicago Metro.
After Liam Gallagher, Andy Bell, Gem Archer and Chris Sharrock formed Beady Eye over a few beers but hours after the messy implosion of Oasis in August 2009, February’s release of debut album ‘Different Gear, Still Speeding‘ resulted in a hugely successful European tour, while the band recently made their UK festival bow at the Isle Of Wight with arguably their strongest live performance to date.
As previously reported on Live4ever, the tour will include a coveted appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman during their stop in New York, with shows in Toronto and Philadelphia also following the opening gig in Chicago.
Live4ever’s sister-site The Oasis Newsroom will be there to continue its unrivalled coverage of the post-Oasis band, which has seen it quickly grow into the biggest Beady Eye fansite on the web, and the first stop for all the latest news on the Gallaghers.
