DRY THE PAINT!

The group are planning to take over a billboard in east London...

The Beta Band are the inspiration behind an original piece of art on a billboard in east LONDON.

Tomorrow (January 26), the group and their "friends" will take over a specially rented billboard at the corner of Goswell Road and Sebastien Street in east London.

Most of the work will be done by graffiti artist Matt Macdonald, who will create his own tribute. He will start the piece at 6am and plans to finish it before the end of the day.

He joked: "It'll make a change to spraying trains".
