Where are they now? SNOWDEN
What happened to Snowden? I’ll tell you what happened – they just put out a new EP Slow Soft Syrup and you should download it here because it’s FREE.
The Atlanta four-piece, who derive their name from the Catch 22 character Howard Snowden, were mesmerizing when I saw them live a few years back at Mercury Lounge. After their full-length debut in 2006 titled Anti Anti – a captivating album from start to finish – Snowden started gaining incredible buzz, touring with the likes of Kings Of Leon, Arcade Fire and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, as well as securing the title of “most blogged” band on the internet (according to elbo.ws).
While they were local heroes down in ATL, they seemed to just scratch the surface nationally and have been on hiatus for a while. So I was excited when I caught wind of this new EP. Hopefully it will drum up enough buzz prior to their next full-length release later this year to finally catapult them to the next level.
