Miles Kane has confirmed to NME.COM that he has quit The Rascals.

The singer's departure has been announced following speculation about his future last week.

Kane, one of half of The Last Shadow Puppets, will now work on a solo project, and The Rascals will not continue.

“We can confirm that The Rascals have parted ways," a spokesperson told NME.COM. "Miles Kane is currently writing new material and has been in the studio recording some tracks by himself. Greg Mighall and Joe Edwards are working on a film project with 'Awaydays' star Liam Boyle.”

Liverpool's The Rascals were originally formed from the ashes of Little Flames, which featured all three members.

The band released one album, 2008's 'Rascalize'.
