  • Snow Patrol Biography
    SNOW PATROL BIOGRAPHY A few reasons why Snow Patrol are one of the biggest and boldest bands of the past decade: over 15 years, the part Irish, part Scottish five piece have transformed from cultish indie wannabes into a stadium-packing tour de force. They have shifted over ten million albums worldwide and been nominated for Grammys and Brits; scooped Meteors and Ivor Novello Album Awards. At the heart of the band is Gary Lightbody, Snow Patrol‟s frontman and songwriter-in-chief. Over five studio albums, the 33 year-old has sketched heart-bruised laments and arm-around-your-best-mate festival anthems; radio hits and moments of painful introspection. All of these have been gathered together for Up To Now - a double album of 30 singles, cover versions and album tracks. “It‟s a bit like photo album,” says Lightbody. “It‟s a documentation of how the band got to where it is now. We‟ve been working hard for 15 years – it wasn‟t something that happened overnight. We wanted to give people as honest an account of us as a band over the last five albums, warts and all. Yeah, we‟re being selectively honest and we might be covering over some of the cracks, but this collection really feels like an honest portrait of us as a band. “At first we got it down to 40 songs but knew it had to be leaner than that and had a little trouble cutting some things we really liked out. But we got it down to 30 in the end.

In 2008 UNESCO awarded Glasgow the title of ‘City of Music’ and the application dossier submitted in support of this title noted the importance of rock and pop for the city’s musical reputation. Since the late 1970s a large number of bands have emerged from (or been associated with) the city, yet little academic research has been carried out to determine the factors behind this phenomenon.

    PS edited by Raymond Friel and Richard Price number 2 PS edited by Raymond Friel and Richard Price PS number 2 2007 PS is the Prose Supplement to Painted, spoken, which is edited, typeset, and published by Richard Price. Please send an A5 stamped self-addressed envelope for a free copy. Earlier issues have been digitised at: www.poetrymagazines.org.uk PS‟s editorial policy is constituted in instalments by the contents of PS PS appears occasionally, from 24 Sirdar Rd, Wood Green, London N22 6RG Other related projects are outlined at www.hydrohotel.net Sounds Richard Price The response to the first issue of PS has been exceptional. All copies have gone, and they went quickly. On the strength of this, the editors haven‟t doubled the print-run or negotiated till-point distribution rights with the publishers of Hello, but we have decided to keep on with the documentation of pleasurable and/or thought-provoking things. In this issue that means sounds: the melodic but lyrically surprising band Belle and Sebastian; Fred Hunter‟s account of recording activities in the 1960s (with its strong connections to the world of Migrant, discussed in our first issue), and the strange Latinate textures of Joseph Macleod. There is a curious gap in this – a piece on sound poetry itself, and so, for a later issue, the invitation goes out for a piece perhaps recounting a history of sound poetry in England, Wales, and Scotland since the 60s, or, perhaps more challenging, a piece on where sound poetry is now. A digital version of PS will appear in due course on the poetrymagazines.org.uk site.
