LUCKY PIERRE / L. PIERRE

BIOGRAPHY:

Lucky Pierre is Arab Strap vocalist Aiden Moffat working solo. A couple of singles were released in 2000 on his own Lucky label, after which he signed to Melodic, and delivered his debut album in 2002. Christmas 2002 saw him release a secret single, with no promotion or information provided. In fact it was only word of mouth that it was even a Lucky Pierre release.
2005 saw the release of a second album, "Touchpool".
With the demise of Arab Strap in 2006, Moffat was able to concentrate once again on Lucky Pierre (by now called L. Pierre), and released his third album, "Dip", featuring a more stripped down sound made by Alan Barr (cello), Stevie Jones (double bass) and Allan Wylie (trumpet), complementing Moffat on drums, keyboards, percussion and harmonium.
2007 also saw Moffat contribute to a music / literature album entitled "The Ballad Of The Books", which he did under his own name. Moffat then formed a new band called The Best Ofs.
