Snow Patrol announce new UK tour
Snow Patrol are back with a brand new tour for 2018/2019 in support of their new album Wildness.
The Northern Ireland rockers’ latest release, Wildness, which features the singles Don’t Give In and Life on Earth, was released last week to critical acclaim.
The band have now announced a slew of new tour dates for December 2018 and January next year.
The new tour dates will see Snow Patrol visit Newcastle, Birmingham, London, Leeds, Manchester and Glasgow.
Take a look at the video for the band’s latest single, Empress, below:
Snow Patrol first formed in 1993 but reached notoriety with the release of their 2002 album Final Straw, which featured the hit singles Chocolate, Spitting Games and top 5 smash Run.
Their follow-up album, 2006’s Eyes Open, spawned even bigger hits, including Chasing Cars and Hands Open, and saw the band reach global success.
Snow Patrol consists of Gary Lightbody, Nathan Connolly, Paul Wilson, Jonny Quinn and Johnny McDaid. They have since released two more studio albums – A Hundred Million Suns and Fallen Empires – and a Greatest Hits compilation in 2013.
Wildness marks their first studio album for seven years. Do you want to get tickets early? Simply order Wildness by 15:00 on 5 June 2018 via the official store to get access to our presale which will open at 10:00 on 6 June 2018.
