Arab Strap, the Scottish duo of Aidan Moffat and Malcolm Middleton, crafts whimsical indie rock narratives exploring broken lives, failed relationships and the resilience found in perseverance. Following their mid-nineties breakthrough, during which they co-invented the bedroom pop genre, Arab Strap embarked on a ten-year creative hiatus. Fortunately, Arab Strap has chosen to continue their musical journey, recording new albums and gracing Basel with an exclusive Swiss performance right after the Primavera Festival.
