Nathan Connolly has been the guitarist with acclaimed Northern Irish rock band <a href="spotify:artist:3rIZMv9rysU7JkLzEaC5Jp" data-name="Snow Patrol">Snow Patrol</a> since 2002. Since then, they have gone on to sell 17 million albums, headline festivals, achieve five UK platinum albums, an Ivor Novello award and Grammy and Mercury Music Prize nominations.
In 2013, Connolly founded <a href="spotify:artist:6FeebWsBMCP5p9Ojoa2hGs" data-name="Little Matador">Little Matador</a> with drummer Paul 'Binzer' Brennan, bassist Gavin Fox and guitarists Troy Stewart and Dave Magee. They released their self-titled album the following year, produced by Sam Bell in London's Metropolis Studios.
Connolly began working on a solo album with producer Rocky O'Reilly in Belfast in 2017. A lockdown-imposed hiatus from Snow Patrol touring allowed him to finish the project in early 2021. "Although the album is not about home," says Connolly, "I felt compelled to make it there."
Connolly's debut solo album, 'The Strange Order Of Things' features vocals from Simon Neil of Biffy Clyro, and Irish artist Ailbhe Reddy. Long-time collaborators Dave and Herb Magee (LaFaro, Little Matador, Arvo Party), Stephen Leacock (General Fiasco) and Gavin Fox (Turn, Idlewild, Little Matador) provide a backdrop of guitars and drums on the ten track album.
Connolly describes the album as "trying to understand, make sense and work through events that have led to who I am now: heartache, regret, emotional cost, fatherhood".
Nathan Connolly's album, 'The Strange Order of Things' will be released on April 21st, with pre-order available now
