Beta Band fansite

The Aliens were in session on the Rob da Bank show on BBC Radio One last night. In case you missed it, you can check it out using the BBC’s listen again player

(thanks to Crewe for this news!)

Update 16th July 2008
The listen again player link no longer works, but here’s the show page (10th August 2006) with tracklisting from the evening

Listen online to an XFM session The Aliens recorded last week (19th July 2006), which includes ‘Robot Man’, ‘The Happy Song’ and ‘Setting Sun’

(Thanks to theNomad for finding this)

Meanwhile, according to John from the band, an XFM and Radio One session will be broadcast in a couple of weeks time

The Aliens have made their new single ‘The Happy Song’ available to stream on their MySpace today.

Check it out at:

Also, The Aliens message board is now back online :)

It looks like The Aliens website has been updated – or at least turned into a blog.

The URL http://www.thealiens.co.uk now diverts to http://thealiens.musicblog.co.uk/

In the process the message board seems to have gone missing? I hope it hasn’t been deleted :(

Richard Greentree (former bass player with The Beta Band) has a new band called The General And Duchess Collins.

There’s a nice interview with Rich here:
