Rascal Miles Monkeys around

MILES KANE has catapulted his fame status by teaming up with ARCTIC MONKEYS
frontman ALEX TURNER.

But we've got an exclusive video interview and live performance from the indie
boy with his own band THE RASCALS.
See the exclusive track by watching the video below:
Many believed side-project THE LAST SHADOW PUPPETS, who released No.1
LP The Age Of The Understatement in April, was just a one-off experiment.

But in an exclusive interview at Camden's Proud Gallery, Miles revealed fans
can expect a follow-up next year.

He said: "Alex and I are playing at Reading Festival and have a few gigs
in October. We'll then start discussing new material in the new year.

"We're best mates but we're concentrating on our respective bands for now."
The talented Scouser made it clear that despite his success with The Last
Shadow Puppets, The Rascals is, and always will be, his top priorty.

He added: "The Last Shadow Puppets is great - the No.1 was amazing and
something I didn't expect.

"It's nice to have a balance but The Rascals is my baby. I've been with
the guys for a long time and we're having a great time. I get such a buzz
being with my mates."

Miles and his Rascal bandmate, bassist JOE EDWARDS, chatted to The Sun
ahead of the release of their catchy new single Freakbeat Phantom.
