Aidan Moffat & Bill Wells

A world exclusive, ladies and gents – a veritable melding of Falkirk minds – as cult-pop philosopher Aidan Moffat embraces avant-garde marvel Bill Wells for a mystery-enshrouded premiere... A brilliant jazz-agitator and groove dude who’s been touted as the Central Belt’s answer to Sun Ra, Bill Wells’ lavish, life-affirming art traverses dexterous, melodic improv and soaring, cinematic awe. He’s recorded for Geographic; performed with the likes of Will Oldham and Jens Lekman; collaborated with Maher Shalal Hash Baz and Isobel Campbell.

Arab Strap’s candid maverick Moffat – enduring ambassador of drunken fumbling, urgent seduction and furtive lust – recently unveiled the awesome ‘I Can Hear Your Heart’: a penetrating exegesis of desolate confession, poignant self-conscience and stark naked honesty, deliriously sound-tracked by forsaken cantatas, mariachi swaggers and b-movie fragments. It further affirmed and elevated his status as a 21st Century Robert Burns.
