According to foreign media reports, Arab Strap, a famous Scottish independent band, has been officially announced, and they are about to reorganize their performances.
In 1995, Arabian Belt was founded in Falcock by Aidan Moffat and Malcolm Middleton. Since the debut album "The Week Never Starts Round Here" in 1996, Arab Belt Band has released six studio albums, and the last one was "The Last Romance" in 2005. In September, 2006, Arabian Belt announced its dissolution, and in December of the same year, Arabian Belt held a farewell performance in Japan.
Earlier this week, the news about the reorganization of the Arabian Belt Band came out, and the news was officially confirmed by the Arabian Belt Band in the BBC program Steve Lamacq on Wednesday. In an interview with this program, the Arabian Belt Band said that they decided to reunite after ten years of dissolution, and they were still considering whether to record some new works.
Guitarist Middleton said, "It’s time to celebrate. It’s a chance for us to enjoy our music again." Another member Moffat went on to say, "We want to celebrate when we are relatively young, because standing on the stage like this won’t look awkward."
At the same time, Arabian Belt also released a new version of their first single "The First Big Weekend of 2016", and fans can hear this new version of the single on Spotify website.
In October this year, the Arabian Belt Band will perform in Glasgow, Manchester and London for three consecutive days from 13th to 15th local time. Tickets for the performance will be on sale from 9: 00 am local time on June 17th. （KFCMAN）
