Snow Patrol is a Northern Irish rock band formed in 1994 in Dundee, Scotland. The band originally consisted of Gary Lightbody (vocals, guitar), Nathan Connolly (guitar, backing vocals), and Johnny McDaid (piano, guitar, keyboards, backing vocals), with Lightbody being the only remaining original member. The band initially performed under the name Polarbear, releasing the EP 'Starfighter Pilot' in 1997, before adopting the name Snow Patrol later that year. After losing Morrison as a member, they added Jonny Quinn as drummer. Their first two studio albums, 'Songs for Polarbears' (1998) and 'When It's All Over We Still Have to Clear Up' (2001), were released by Jeepster Records and were commercially unsuccessful. The band signed to Polydor Records in 2002, with Connolly joining as lead guitarist. Their major-label debut album, 'Final Straw', was released in 2003, featuring the hit single 'Run', which contributed to their rise to national fame as part of the post-Britpop movement. The album achieved 5× platinum certification in the UK. In 2005, bassist Mark McClelland left the band and was replaced by Paul Wilson.
