DOHERTY AND BARAT REUNITE FOR CHARITY SINGLE
Former LIBERTINES bandmates PETE DOHERTY and CARL BARAT are on the verge of reuniting to form a new band, after being persuaded to record a charity single together.
Estranged rockers Doherty and Barat, who now front BABYSHAMBLES and DIRTY PRETTY THINGS respectively, fell out when Doherty was fired from The Libertines for his ongoing drug addictions.
However, British record label B-Unique has successfully asked the pair to record a cover of THE CLASH song JANIE JONES, alongside THE KOOKS star LUKE PRITCHARD, to raise money for late Clash frontman JOE STRUMMER’s music charity Strummerville.
And now label bosses hope the pair will reteam to record an album of new songs.
An insider says, "B-Unique are determined to sign Pete and want Carl on board too. They met up with Carl at the Reading Festival (in England) to move things forward.
"It will all be confirmed in the coming weeks."
