Snowden Announce Tourdates

Snowden will be returning to Austin this summer. Should be a good time, they definetely put on a great show with lots of energy. You can buy tickets for the Austin show here. It's an all ages show at Stubb's inside and only $10.

Just a little info on the band. Snowden is from Atlanta, Georgia and have opened for such bands as: Arcade Fire, Xiu Xiu, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Kings of Leon, and Forward Russia. They got their name from Howard Snowden, a fictional character from the Joseph Heller's novel, Catch-22. They have a few EPs and one full length album, Anti-Anti, which was released in 2006. I'm assuming they will be trying out new material on this tour.
