Snowy White was born as Terence Charles White. He is known for his work on Roger Waters: In the Flesh Live (2000), Roger Waters the Wall (2014) and The Wall: Live in Berlin (1990).
White grew up on the Isle of Wight, completely self-taught as a guitarist, having received his first guitar from his parents at the age of 10. He moved to Stockholm in 1965 at the age of 17, spending more than a year there playing in a trio called The Train. By 1970 he made his way to London and found work as a session player and as a member of Heavy Heart. During this time he met Peter Green and the two would form a lifelong friendship. In 1968 while living in Sweden he swapped his Fender Straocaster which he didn't like to his signature guitar, the 1957 Gibson Les Paul Goldtop Standard. White had been recommended to Pink Floyd by Kate Bush's former manager Hilary Walker, as they were looking for an additional guitarist for the live band on the Animals tour in 1977. White's solo on "Pigs On The Wing", (it appears on the 8-track version), was his first time playing for the band. During the tour, White started off the show himself by playing bass on the song "Sheep", as well as soloing during "Have a Cigar" and "Shine On You Crazy Diamond Part VIII". In 1978 Pink Floyd's keyboard player Rick Wright asked him to play guitar on his solo album, entitled 'Wet Dream,' which he recorded in the South of France. In 1979 Peter Green decided to head for the studio once more and invited Snowy along to jam. The result was the album entitled 'In the Skies', now something of a collectors item. In 1979 Thin Lizzy guitarist Scott Gorham, having seen White play with Pink Floyd in New York during the Animals tour, approached him about joining Thin Lizzy. White left Thin Lizzy in August 1982. White was invited by the former Pink Floyd bassist Roger Waters to perform in another take of The Wall, in 1990, by the ruins of the Berlin Wall, along with other guest artists. Waters also called on White in 1991 for the 'Guitar Legends' concert, in Seville. In 1999 White joined Waters for his band's In the Flesh US tour, which was successful, and in 2000, Waters again toured the US, this time recording a live album and making a film of the show. Again, from February to July 2002 White toured the world with Roger Waters. White toured with Waters in the The Dark Side of the Moon Live tour from June 2006, having played in Europe, North America, Australia, Asia and South America. He also performed with Waters at Live Earth. From September 2010 to September 2011 White was touring with Roger Waters, as part of his band during the tour The Wall Live.
