ANDY'S 'RADIO CADAQUES':

The video for 'Millionaire' traces a coastal road between Cadaqués and Figueres, taking in a Salvador Dali pilgrimage en route.

Andy told us:

'The song 'Millionaire' was written in 2007. I wrote it after a trip to Spain. It was springtime, it was still snowing in Sweden, and I happened to be talking to my mate Iain, who I know from years back in Oxford. He'd moved out to Barcelona a few years before, and he just said get yourself over here for a week...'

To read the rest of the story behind the song, head on over to Beady Eye's Facebook page.

Andy created a playlist for the band's drive and has kindly let us have a copy. You can check it out at Beady Eye Records' Mixcloud page HERE!

JAPAN TSUNAMI APPEAL / 'ACROSS THE UNIVERSE':

Last Sunday 3rd April Beady Eye were one of several acts to perform at a benefit to raise money for the British Red Cross Japan Tsunami Appeal. The Coral, Graham Coxon, Paul Weller, Kelly Jones, Primal Scream and Richard Ashcroft all played sets to a sell out crowd at Brixton Academy.

Beady Eye would like to thank all the fans, artists and everyone who made the day possible. The event raised £163,262.97 for the appeal.

Beady Eye have also recorded a cover of The Beatles track 'Across The Universe'. Proceeds from the track, which is available to download until Sunday 17th April, will also go to the benefit. Fans can download the track HERE!

Beady Eye Records have three posters commemorating the event, designed by Gem, that will be given to three lucky fans chosen at random who download the track. The posters have been signed by the band. (No purchase is necessary to enter the competition. Please send an email to )
