Biography

Edit

Scottish miserablists Arab Strap were a musical duo from Falkirk. They marked themselves out with their brooding sound and honest stories. Touching on disappointing trips to petrol stations, weekend watching of The Simpsons, and getting by in a world where the local pub can on occasion contain every girl you have ever slept with, Arab Strap presented a touching and gritty take on contemporary Scottish life. In 2006 the band completed a farewell tour entitled Ten Years of Tears.
