The Aliens are a Scottish band consisting of Gordon Anderson (aka Lone Pigeon, lead vocals & guitar) and former Beta Band members John Maclean (keyboards & backing vocals) and Robin Jones (drums & backing vocals). They formed in 2005 following the split of The Beta Band the previous year. Their first release, the EP Alienoid Starmonica, was released to the UK iTunes Music Store on 20 March 2006, and on CD and 12" on 8 May 2006 on their own EMI imprint, Pet Rock. They have a more funk-based sound than The Beta Band.
