Mastercard presents The Emirates Airline Dubai Jazz Festival Day 1 with Snow Patrol at Dubai Media City Amphitheatre on Wednesday 20 February 2019.
Snow Patrol will return to the UAE for the first time in seven years.
The main thing to get about Snow Patrol is that, 14 years after they started out as a student band at Dundee University, they're still flying, gloriously and unpredictably, by the seat of their pants.
"The great and terrifying thing about our band," declares their leader and main songwriter Gary Lightbody, "Is that everything has always happened as it's going along.
There's been very little masterplan.
We allow things to happen as much by accident as by deliberate intention.
Now that the band have become feted as commercial giants - their last album Eyes Open was the UK's best-seller of 2006, it's worth remembering that Snow Patrol spent the 1990's so broke that at one low point Lightbody had to sell his record collection to pay the rent.
Jeepster finally dropped them in 2001 after their second album, the presciently titled When It's All Over We Still Have To Clear Up, failed to connect beyond their passionate but stubbornly tiny fanbase.
Snow Patrol began to get considerably bigger all over the UK and in America after signing to the Fiction label in 2003 and hooking up with the producer Garrett 'Jacknife' Lee.
Under Lee's inspired guidance, Snow Patrol and their increasingly charismatic vocalist Lightbody, shed some of their indie rough edges and began to hone their pop smarts.
In 2003 they released Final Straw their first number one album, which yielded the band's first top 5 hit, Run.
It also won them the inaugural Ivor Novello for best album in 2004.
In 2005 they moved into a remote studio in the middle of Ireland, Grouse Lodge, and completed Eyes Open, home of one of the most emotionally potent tunes of the 21st century, Chasing Cars.
Wildness is the seventh studio album by Northern Irish-Scottish rock band Snow Patrol. The album was released on 25 May 2018.
The band have over 15 million global album sales, more than one billion global track stream, five UK Platinum albums and have been nominated for both Grammy and Mercury Prize awards.
