The Ataris

Snowbird Productions is proud to present American punk rock band "The Ataris" live in Singapore for the very first time.

Formed in 1991 and dubbed by many as one of the pioneers of pop punk, The Ataris is one of the most respected punk rock bands ever formed. Their cover of Don Henley's "Boys of Summer" reached our local radio airwaves in mid 2003 and have received mainstream success ever since. Their song "The Night the Lights Went Out in NYC" was featured exclusively in the Spiderman 2 OST together with Dashboard Confessional, Train, Maroon 5, and Yellowcard. Fellow musicians in the scene consider them professionals and friends, including members of bands such as Blink 182, The Descendants, The Vandals, and Useless I.D.

The Ataris are four friends creating words and music in the basements and dive bars of the world, while young souls pile into the microphone and spill beer into our effects pedals. Honest stories and organic sounds, chock full of heart, sincerity and beautiful mistakes. Played loud and recorded to analog tape.

Sixteen years of travelling the world, several broken down vans and five full length studio albums. The Ataris album "So Long, Astoria" included the tracks "In This Diary" and "The Saddest Song" and sold upwards of 850,000 copies earning the band it's first gold record.

The Ataris are currently finishing up vocals for their new album "The Graveyard of the Atlantic".
