Snow Patrol hit road

Snow Patrol. Not so much chasing cars as racing them.

Snow Patrol. Now there’s a band who like a challenge.

To mark the release of their new album A Hundred Million Suns, the band will be playing four capital cities in two days.

The whistlestop two-day trip will take place over October 26 and 27.

They kick off in Dublin with a lunchtime gig at the Gate Theatre on Sunday October 26, and then move on to Belfast’s Empire for an evening show.

After that, the band travel to Edinburgh for a lunchtime show at popular Fringe venue The Assembly Rooms and then head south for a final show at London’s Bloomsbury Theatre.

The venues have been selected by the band for their intimacy, and tickets, priced £22.50, will be available via the bands mailing list.

As another nice touch – aw bless – the band have got local schoolkids to draw, paint or collage their interpretation of A Hundred Million Suns and the results will decorate the venues’ lobbies.

The new album is released on October 27.
