Beatles baby plays the bass

Ringo Starr's granddaughter has formed a band.

The London-based group called Belakis have already played a handful of dates, and have a few more gigs lined up around the capital.

Tatia Starkey, whose father Zak Starkey used to play drums for Oasis and is currently sticksman with The Who, is not following in their footsteps though, and instead plays bass.

You can listen to some of the group's tracks on Myspace.com.
