Snow Patrol + Ed Sheeran

Gary Lightbody and his troupe in Snow Patrol have blown up on the heels of three übersuccessful albums, the latest being 2011's Fallen Empires.The Irish band has polished itself into a major touring act, one that may be a little too Coldplay-ish for some but idolized by a great many more. Lightbody & Co. share a bill with breakthrough English artist Ed Sheeran, who plays earnest acoustic guitar melodies while accompanying himself with a hip-hop-like flow. Buzzy calypso-pop outfit Jonquil joins Saturday.
