The album - called 'Below The Radio' - is released on 18 Oct and will feature the band's favourite songs by artists such as Beck, Air, and Sparklehorse. Grandaddy singer Jason Lytle explains: "After looking back over this list of my favourite songs I've compiled, I can't help but notice how they are not the big 'heavy hitters' or the songs that the record labels would have suggested as being 'the singles'. Still, they ended up being my favourite songs from the albums that they came from." Tracks on the compilation include:
Beck - 'We Live Again'
Beulah - 'Burned By The Sun'
Fruitbats - 'The Little Acorn'
Snow Patrol - 'Run'
Home - 'Comin' Up Empty Again'
