Arab Strap are back for three gigs - and, maybe, more...

Scottish cult duo Arab Strap announced a reunion during an interview on Steve Lamacq’s show on BBC Radio 6. Aidan Moffat and Malcolm Middleton originally broke up in 2006 but they have three reunion gigs booked for October 2016. Here are the dates:

10-13 London, England - Brixton Electric
10-14 Manchester, England - O2 Ritz
10-15 Glasgow, Scotland - Barrowland Ballroom

During the interview they also said they'll see how the shows go and then they will decide whether or not they want to write new music together. They also shared an updated version of their song “The First Big Weekend” - now called “The First Big Weekend of 2016”.
