Lured to the Oldest Record Shop In World (TM) by the "promise of cakes" (quoth), Arab Strap will be warming up for their evening show at Cardiff's Barfly by playing a mini-set at Spillers Records this Saturday, 12th November.
File into the backroom in an orderly fashion where the action begins at 4pm. Buying cakes from Greg's Bakery across the road might be appreciated by the gutsy Scots, but it won't necessarily guarantee you a pitch right under Aidan's nose.
The band recently released new album 'The Last Romance' through Chemikal Underground (dis review coming real soon!) and their November tour continues as so...
