+----------------------------------[Notes]-----------------------------------+
| |
| Featuring a fusion of several alternative stylistic touchstones, Snow |
| Patrol's compositions combine songwriting aptitude with pop/rock's |
| sharpest strains. Although originally from Northern Ireland, |
| vocalist/guitarist Gary Lightbody and bassist/keyboardist Mark |
| McClelland first teamed up in 1994 at the University of Dundee, having |
| relocated to Scotland to study at the esteemed college. The duo began |
| composing music under several different band names, including "Shrug" |
| and "Polar Bear," before adopting the Snow Patrol moniker and enlisting |
| Jonny Quinn to play drums in 1997. They signed with the U.K.'s Jeepster |
| label in 1998 and released their debut album, Songs for Polar Bears, in |
| August of that same year. The record was a large success across the |
| U.K., where the bandmates also gained a large fan base for their live |
| show. |
| |
| The British trio graduated school and decided to relocate from Dundee to |
| Glasgow in late 2000. Their second full-length, When It's All Over We |
| Still Have to Clear Up, was released in April 2001. Quickly thereafter, |
| guitarist Nathan Connolly was added to the group, and Snow Patrol found |
| themselves a deal with Polydor. Producer Chris Lord-Alge signed on for |
| the release of Final Straw, which appeared stateside in April 2004. With |
| the success of singles such as "Chocolate," "Run," and "Spitting Games," |
| Final Straw sold two million copies in their native U.K. and became the |
| 26th most popular British album of that year. |
| |
| Despite their growing success, founding member Mark McClelland left the |
| band in March 2005, effectively downgrading Snow Patrol to a trio |
| comprising Lightbody, Quinn, and Connolly. Shortly thereafter, however, |
| former Terra Diablo bass player Paul Wilson and touring keyboardist Tom |
| Simpson were permanantly added to the band. An opening slot on the |
| European leg of U2's "Vertigo Tour" followed in summer 2005, and Snow |
| Patrol's fourth album, the slickly commercial Eyes Open, arrived in May |
| 2006. That fall, with a successful run through North America under their |
| belt and the mainstream appeal of "Chasing Cars" maintaining the band's |
| presence on American radio, Eyes Open was certified gold in the United |
| States. Snow Patrol also became the first U.K. rock act in 13 years to |
| break into the Top 5 of the Billboard singles charts. |
