ALL TAKING OFF IN THE SNOWBYRDS CAMP

The Snowbyrds are starting their 2nd year with a flying start. Firstly they have been picked form in a festival with Fatboy Slim, the View and more..... Secondly they are to have a song published to hundreds of thousands in a computer game.

The band has recently been picked from hundreds down to a final four to go and compete in a battle of the band in Mayrhofen, Austria. The competition named ‘King of the Mountain’ is part of the festival sporting acts such as Fatboy Slim, The View, Reverend and the Makers, Biffy Clyro and Dizzy Rascal. The band set of for Austria on the 28th March, if they are successful in the final four bands, they then win £2000 and a support slot to Fatboy Slim himself. A big step from playing the pubs in Blackburn I’m sure you would agree.

Secondly the band has had a song selected for an already successful mobile phone game. The Game ‘Car Jack Streets’ is a mobile phone version of the very highly rated Grand Theft Auto. As Car Jack Streets has had massive success on mobile phones so far, it is eagerly awaited for a release on the iphone in the month of April 09. The bands song ‘Riot’ will feature in the game... a sneak preview can be seen at;

As can be seen the band have come a long way after two years, the band have also travelled to Poland and are due to visit again soon to re-play a festival.

The press release aims to invite local support from media stations as the band is still relatively unknown in Lancashire. Please any help that can be given would be much appreciated. The web site for the band can be seen at: www.myspace.com/snowbyrdsuk
