Snow Patrol @ Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne (17/09/2007)
On the tail end of the 'Eyes Open' tour, Snow Patrol show that even rocking arenas they still now how to put on a damn good show.
Selling out their first two Australian tours, there is no doubt Snow Patrol has a legion of adoring fans. The Glaswegian lads will be returning to Australia in February 2007 to serve up another taste of their sublime vocals and melodic tunes.
Since their breakthrough album Eyes Open topped the UK, NZ and Australian charts earlier this year, Snow Patrol have been on the move – delivering showcase performances around the globe; scoring a hit in the US Top Ten with the single Chasing Cars and seeing their music played on popular TV series such as Grey’s Anatomy, The 4400 and ER.
With a new album in the works, the band are honing their skills with a series of live shows – and Australia will be one of the first cabs off the rank for the band.
Joining Snow Patrol on this tour are the Howling Bells and Red Riders. Tickets on sale November 23

Snow Patrol - Eyes Open
With an additional member and recorded in a hectic year touring with the likes of U2 and playing to huge audiences at Live 8 in Hyde Park and Scotland, check out the follow up LP from the lads who created the successful 2004 two million selling "Final Straw"
Snow Patrol - Live At Somerset House
Snow Patrol release their debut DVD. And, as you'd expect, it's charming and lovely. What a surprise!
Various Artists - Below the Radio (Grandaddy)
Insert your own wanky DIY cliché here. Grandaddy are perhaps the definitive alt-rock, lo-fi, experimental alternative-country-pop act on the planet in 2005. It's no surprise then, that most of the artists on Below The Radio, are from the bands that fall into the same "genre".
Snow Patrol - Chocolate
Chocolate, the second single off Snow Patrol's release Final Straw, oozes aural appeal and makes you feel all warm and tingly.
Snow Patrol - Run
Melodic. Emotive. Beautiful. Is 'Run' by Snow Patrol the anthem for 2004?
