Liam Gallagher's rock band Beady Eye have pulled out of a slot at California's Coachella Festival in April (14).

The former Oasis star broke the bad news to fans in a post on the group's Facebook.com page on Friday (28Feb14).

He writes, "For reasons beyond our control, Beady Eye are no longer playing Coachella. I wanna apologise to people who bought tickets on the back of us being announced."

The news comes amid reports suggesting the rockers have parted ways with their manager Scott Rodger, the man who masterminded Sir Paul MCCartney's career.

The 2014 Coachella festival takes place over two consecutive weekends in April (14) with headline sets from acts including Muse and Arcade Fire.
