Snow Patrol, OK Go And Silversun Pickups Join Forces For Tour

Scottish rock band Snow Patrol will headline five Canadian shows also featuring OK Go and Silversun Pickups this spring.

Snow Patrol's second North American tour this year in support of Eyes Open began in Portland, Oregon on Monday. The band's fourth studio album sold more than 1.5 million copies last year, which made it the biggest selling U.K. album of the year. It finished second to Clay Aiken's Thousand Different Ways for favourite international album in last year's ChartAttack readers' poll.

Chicago's OK Go enjoyed renewed interest in 2005's Oh No album last year when the video for "Here It Goes Again" became an internet phenomenon.

Los Angeles-based Silversun Pickups became the first non-Canadian band to sign with MapleMusic Recordings earlier this month.
