Snow Patrol release the 2nd single from their number one album 'Eyes Open' on July 24th.
'Chasing Cars', which was first premiered on the band's support to U2 in Summer 2005, was quick to establish itself as a favourite of reviewers and fans alike on release of the album, and has already become one of the many high points of the band's live show. Anybody who was at one of the sold out world tour dates will know it's a powerful moment and the sight and sound of arenas filled with people singing along to this soaring masterpiece is a definite moment, not quickly forgotten.
'Chasing Cars' has proved to be a huge success already in the US following it's inclusion in the dramatic final scenes of one of the countries most popular TV shows. Having already sold 80,000 downloads, the track is growing and growing and is confidently predicted to hand the band their biggest US single to date. Snow Patrol, it seems, are unstoppable.
Currently midway through their second sold out US tour so far this year, Snow Patrol have enjoyed an amazing time since the release of 'Eyes Open', which became a platinum album after just two days on sale.
In addition to their first number one in the UK and Ireland, the album has given them their highest chart positions around the world, and currently resides in the UK top 3. Following the success of their touring so far in 2006, the band recently announced a string of huge gigs over the remainder of the year, including what will certainly be a highly charged and victorious headline show at Edinburgh's Meadowbank Stadium in August and two Wembley Arena shows in December.
