Carl Barat Denies Doherty Collaboration

Carl Barat has quashed rumours that he will be collaborating with his former Libertines pal Pete Doherty on new material.

It was claimed the two former bandmates were working on a musical that then developed into the pair writing songs for an album.

Barat however, has other plans as he states he is "too busy concentrating on my other projects" to be working on the so-called-collaboration.

"I haven't seen Pete for donkeys." Barat added. "The musical is off - the window closes".

Carl's current band Dirty Pretty Things release their second album 'Romance At Short Notice' on Monday, June 30th.
