With the heart of folk music at his core, David Gray’s mix of acoustic and electronic instrumentation has established him as one of the U.K.’s leading music artists both at home and overseas. With a career spanning over fifteen years and nearly 12 million album sales, Gray’s commercial success is also backed up by a critical consensus and countless accolades, including a Grammy nomination for “Best Single,” a BAFTA nomination, two Ivor Novello awards for songwriting, a Q Award for “Best Single,” and two Brit nominations for “Best Male.” In 2009, Gray released his eighth studio album, Draw the Line, which charted well in multiple countries and produced a Top 40 hit in America, “Fugitive.” Less than 12 months later he returned with another album, Foundling, featuring 19 songs varying in mood and tempo.

The Shins received a Grammy nomination for “Best Alternative Album” in 2008 for their third album, Wincing the Night Away. Now, The Shins are hitting the road in support of their fourth album, Port Of Morrow, which is set for release in March. It was recorded in Los Angeles and Portland over the course of 2011 with frontman James Mercer handling all songwriting duties, lead vocals and the majority of the instrumentation.

Snow Patrol’s newest album, Fallen Empires, is set to be released in the U.S. on January 20 and arrives with a serious reputation attached. The Irish/Scottish five piece has sold more than 11 million albums and been responsible for several era-defining singles, including “Run,” “Chocolate,” and “Chasing Cars.” Their albums have been nominated for the Mercury Music Prize, Grammys and MTV Europe Music Awards.

The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas features artists at the forefront of the touring world and emerging artists that will inspire the next musical movements coupled with spectacularly-designed, technology-driven venues. The excitement of live-music and sports action spills onto the casino floor from Book & Stage, an upscale sports and entertainment lounge, while live DJs fill the rhythmic and vibrant hot-spot Bond with the best in house-music. Finally, The Chandelier, a dramatic inhabitable three-story architectural wonder, created by 2 million luminous crystals, that houses three unique bar experiences: high-energy hot spot, sophisticated cocktail retreat and inviting lounge.  For more information visit: www.cosmopolitanlasvegas.com.
