A punk band for the “sped-up version” age, Snõõper are a Nashville DIY five-piece that play brutally fast, incredibly fun songs. Starting out in 2020 as a collaboration between guitarist Connor Cummins and vocalist Blair Tramel, Snõõper have released a handful of EPs so far (Music For Spies (2020), Snõõper (2021), and Town Topic (2022)), as well as a live album, which came out in February. These days, Snõõper have added three more members — Cam Sarrett on drums, Happy Haugen on bass, and guitarist Ian Teeple — and are preparing to release their debut album, Super Snõõper, out July 14 on Third Man Records.
