The tour offers a chance to look back to the early days of their career as well as giving fans the opportunity to hear their work interpreted in a brand new way. The shows will see Snow Patrol joined by other musicians and surprise guests and will feature, amongst other things, a four-piece string quartet, brass section, harpist, additional percussion, lap steel guitar and a choir. Each ticket to the Reworked tour comes with a free download of the incredible 'Lightning Strike', the epic trilogy that closed 'A Hundred Million Suns'.
