The Arrows were a Canadian new wave band active from 1981 to 1986. Formed by vocalist Dean McTaggart, the group achieved national success with their 1984 debut album "Stand Back," featuring the top 40 hit "Meet Me in the Middle." Their follow-up album, "The Lines Are Open" (1985), produced notable singles like "Heart of the City" and "Talk Talk." After disbanding, McTaggart continued his musical journey as a songwriter, penning hits for artists such as Wynonna and Amanda Marshall.
