Snowy White (born Terrence Charles White, in Devon, England) is a blues guitarist, mostly known for having played for Thin Lizzy (permanent member from 1979 to 1981) and for Pink Floyd (as a backup player; he was first invited to join the band through Europe and America, in the summer of 1976). The collaboration with these two bands was very complicated; the invitation to rehearse the live show of The Wall for Pink Floyd happened at the same time he was invited to become a full-time member of Thin Lizzy, with whom he recorded/co-wrote their Chinatown and Renegade albums. The connection to Pink Floyd remained throughout the years, to the point of his being invited by former member Roger Waters to perform in another take of The Wall, in 1990, by the ruins of the Berlin Wall, among with other guest artists, and in 1991 for the Guitar Legends concert, in Seville and David Gilmour guest appeared on Snowy's 1994 album Highway to the Sun appearing on the track 'Love, Pain and Sorrow' playing whammy-pedal induced Fender Stratocaster.
