Indie-rock pioneers SNOW PATROL will bring their signature anthemic sound to the Welsh capital this summer for a headline show at TK Maxx presents Depot Live at Cardiff Castle.
The Ivor Novello Award winners will headline Cardiff Castle on Thursday June 12th – tickets details at the bottom of the page.
Snow Patrol – fronted by Gary Lightbody with longtime members Nathan Connolly and Johnny McDaid – have been shaping the sound of alternative rock for more than 20 years. With iconic tracks like Chasing Cars, Run, and Open Your Eyes, their emotionally charged anthems continue to resonate with fans worldwide, solidifying their place as one of the most influential bands in modern rock.
Folowing an amazing set last year at BBC Radio 2 in the Park, the band celebrated a major milestone with their first Number 1 album in 18 years. The Forest Is The Pathmarks the rock band’s triumphant return to the top of the charts, following the massive success of Eyes Open in 2006.
Featuring 12 tracks and artwork created by founding member Gary Lightbody, their latest album is a journey of contrasts – epically joyous, life-affirming and huge – with Gary describing it as ‘the biggest sounding record we have ever made.”
With eight studio albums, including the multi-platinum Eyes Open, Snow Patrol have sold more than 16 million records worldwide. Their legacy is further solidified by numerous accolades including seven Meteor Ireland Music Awards, six BRIT Award nominations and a GRAMMY nomination for Best Rock Song. With a career spanning more than two decades, fans in Cardiff can expect a night filled with timeless hits and the very best of modern rock.
The headlining show for TK Maxx presents Depot Live at Cardiff Castle is presented by promoters DEPOT Live and Cuffe and Taylor.
