Miles Kane Celebrates Single Release With Live Shows

• 19th Oct 2010

Miles Kane – one half of The Last Shadow Puppets alongside Arctic Monkey Alex Turner and former frontman of The Rascals – has announced plans for the release of his guitar-grinding debut single ‘Inhaler’ on Columbia Records.

A tribute to one of Miles’ favourite acts of the 1960s – Los Angeles’ psychedelic garage group Bonniwell Music Machine – ‘Inhaler’ is an adaptation of their 1969 track ‘Mother Nature Father Earth’.

“I loved the guitar riff on 'Mother Nature Father Earth',” explains Miles. “It's got a real groove to it and this riff inspired me to build a song around it which then became ‘Inhaler’.”

The b-side features a cover version of another of Miles’ vintage influences, a dazzling take on Lee Hazlewood’s psych-pop classic, ‘Rainbow Woman’.

The record will be made available as a limited edition 7″ vinyl single and will include a special poster. The track will also be available as a digital download.

The single release will be preceded by a run of four, intimate solo shows, including a free show as part of Liverpool Music Week. Miles will play a London show the day after the single’s release.
