Snow Patrol is an Alternative Rock band from Northern Ireland, formed in 1994. Originally conceived as a trio called Polarbear, the band has since expanded over time into a quintet, with vocalist/guitarist Gary Lightbody being the only remaining original member.After releasing two independent albums through Jeepster Records, the band saw moderate success in the United Kingdom with the 2003 album Final Straw, with notable singles such as "Run", "Chocolate" and "Spitting Games". The band saw further worldwide success in the mid-2000s with its follow-up Eyes Open, with "Chasing Cars" being their most notable hit thanks to its exposure through Grey's Anatomy. Since then, the band have released three more albums, with their latest album Wildness being released in 2018.Even though they started as a rock-oriented band early on, the band is mostly known for emotional alternative pop rock songs akin to bands like Coldplay and Death Cab for Cutie, due to them having commercial success in an era filled with similar bands. Despite that, the band was still able to stand out by being more earnest than some of their contemporaries and gather a huge fanbase that follows them to this day.Members: Gary Lightbody: Guitar, vocals (1994-present) Nathan Connolly: Guitar, backing vocals (2002-present) Johnny McDaid: Guitar, piano, keyboards/synths, backing vocals (2011-present)Former members: Jonny Quinn: Drums (1996-2023) Paul Wilson: Bass guitar, backing vocals (2005-2023) Tom Simpson: Keyboards (2005-2013) Mark McClelland: Bass guitar (1994-2005) Michael Morrison: Drums (1994-1996)Discography: Songs for Polarbears (1998) When It's All Over We Still Have To Clear Up (2001) Final Straw (2003) Eyes Open (2006) A Hundred Million Suns (2008) Fallen Empires (2011) Wildness (2018) Reworked (2019) The Fireside Sessions EP (2020) (co-written with fans on Instagram over 10 weeks during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, with all profits going to charity) | |

New Sound Album | |
| Snow Patrol (Music) / int_22093e9b | comment |
New Sound Album: While each subsequent release seems to incorporate more pop rock influences into their sound, Fallen Empires was the band's biggest dive into that combined with elements of alternative dance. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Snow Patrol (Music) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: Songs for Polarbears doesn't resemble anything that Snow Patrol is known for, having instead a Sebadoh-inspired indie sound, immature and self-deprecating lyrics. Their sophomore album, When It's All Over... is also this to a lesser extent, since it also contains the indie sound from their debut. Although it has traces of what the band would be known for in the future. | |

Rearrange the Song: The Reworked compilation features more acoustic and atmospheric renditions of their previous songs. They also tend to do this live in the Reworked Tour, though, with more orchestral arrangements. | |

Alternate Music Video: "Chasing Cars" has a UK and a US version. The UK version (which appears on Youtube as the "2007 version") features close-up shots of Gary Lightbody as he lies barefoot on the ground, even as rain starts to fall. The US version instead has him wandering and lying around in public places in a city while people pass him by. | |
