Legendary Scottish duo Arab Strap perform an intimate Irish tour in July taking in two nights at Whelan’s in Dublin and shows in Cork, Limerick and Belfast. 

“It’s about hopelessness and darkness,” says Aidan Moffat. “But in a fun way” – referring to the band’s 7th studio album ‘As Days Get Dark’, their first since 2005’s ‘The Last Romance’.

“This album feels like its own new thing to me,” he says. “It’s definitely Arab Strap, but an older and wiser one, and quite probably a better one.”

Tickets for all shows go on sale at 10:00 Friday 12th November. Whelan’s here Cyprus Avenue here Dolan’s Here
