Scotland's own Arab Strap are joining the Tuning Fork's Birthday Series for 2022
This birthday series is The Tuning Fork’s annual flagship event and will be held across five nights at the beginning of June, featuring Tiny Ruins and Finn Andrews, Methyl Ethel, Arab Strap, Pax Assadi, Jamaine Ross & Friends, There’s A Tuesday and Daffodils.
On Sunday June 5, The Tuning Fork plays host to Scotland’s finest, Arab Strap. Presented by Drunken Piano, Arab Strap promise to deliver a night to remember with their signature tunes of sex and drugs, sung in thick Scottish brogue, set to electronic beats.

They have toured the world extensively and released their seventh album, AS DAYS GET DARK, in 2021 to critical-acclaim, featuring the single ‘Fable Of The Urban Fox’.
