Coldplay
Coldplay is a post-Britpop
band from London, United Kingdom well known
for their rock melodies and introspective
lyrics. The band consists of:
Chris Martin (lead vocals,
guitar, piano/keyboard)
Jon Buckland (lead guitar, harmonica, backing
vocals)
Guy Berryman (bass, synthesizer, backing
vocals)
Will Champion (drums/percussion, backing
vocals)
Coldplay's early material was reminiscent
of artists such as Radiohead, Oasis, Jeff
Buckley, and Travis. Other influences include
U2, R.E.M, The Smiths, Sparklehorse, The
Stone Roses, Tom Waits, The Flaming Lips,
Neil Young, Echo and the Bunnymen and, more
recently, Johnny Cash and Kraftwerk. Before
his passing, Cash was actually scheduled
to record a track penned by the band.
Since the release of A Rush
Of Blood To The Head, Coldplay has also
been actively supporting various social
and political causes. They have been advocates
for Oxfam's Make Trade Fair campaign and
Amnesty International. The group has also
performed at various charity projects such
as Band Aid 20, Live 8, and the Teenage
Cancer Trust. Martin was outspoken against
Iraq war in 2003, and endorsed Democratic
presidential candidate John Kerry in 2004.
Bassist Guy Berryman says, "You can
make people aware of issues. It isn't very
much effort for us at all, but if it can
help people, then we want to do it".
Despite Coldplay's surge in
popularity, the band has remained very protective
of how their music is used in the media.
The band allows their music to be used in
film, television, and promotional spots
such as the movie trailer to Peter Pan.
However, Coldplay has been adamantly against
their use in actual product endorsement.
The band turned down multi-million dollar
contracts from Gatorade, Diet Coke and The
Gap, who wanted to use the songs "Yellow",
"Trouble", and "Don't Panic"
respectively. According to Martin, "We
wouldn't be able to live with ourselves
if we sold the songs' meanings like that."

Concert Tickets TOUR 2006
Coldplay
Parachutes (November 1999-September 2001)
In November 1999, Coldplay focused their efforts on their
debut album. The band spent the New Year by completing album
tracks "Yellow" and "Everything's Not Lost".
They also played on the NME Carling Premier Tour, which
showcased up-and-coming acts. After releasing three EPs
without a hit song, Coldplay scored their first Top 40 single,
"Shiver". Released in March 2000, the single placed
at a modest #35 and earned the band their first airplay
on MTV.
June was a pivotal moment in Coldplay's history. The band
embarked on their first headlining tour, which included
a triumphant return to Glastonbury. More notably, the band
released the breakthrough single "Yellow". The
song shot to #4 on the UK Singles Chart and placed the band
in public consciousness.
Coldplay released their first full-length album, Parachutes
in July 2000. Along with critical acclaim, Parachutes was
sometimes criticised for bearing a strong resemblance to
the music of Radiohead in their The Bends - OK Computer
era. "Yellow" and "Trouble" earned regular
airplay on radio on both sides of the Atlantic. Parlophone
originally predicted sales of 40,000 units of Parachutes;
by Christmas 1.6 million copies had been sold in the United
Kingdom alone. Parachutes was nominated for the Mercury
Music Prize in September 2000.
Having found success in Europe, the band set their sights
on North America. Parachutes was released in November 2000.
The band embarked on a US club tour in early 2001 coupled
with appearances on Saturday Night Live, Late Night with
Conan O'Brien and The Late Show with David Letterman. Parachutes
was a modest success, and was certified with Gold status
in the United States. The album was also critically well
received, and Parachutes earned Best Alternative Music Album
honours at the 2002 Grammy Awards.
A Rush Of Blood To The Head (October 2001-Mid
2004)
Coldplay returned to the studios in October 2001 to begin
work on their second album. The sessions were sometimes
difficult. There were numerous rumours that the band was
on the verge of a breakup or that the album would be their
final relase.
With much anticipation, Coldplay released their sophomore
album, A Rush Of Blood To The Head in August 2002. The album
was generally considered to be a more sophisticated effort
than Parachutes. For example, the charged opening track
"Politik" was written days after the September
11 terrorist attacks. A Rush Of Blood To The Head became
a best-seller and earned the band more critical accolades.
The album spawned many popular singles, notably "In
My Place", "The Scientist", and "Clocks".
A Rush Of Blood To The Head was perhaps most reminiscent
of classic era Echo and the Bunnymen. This is not surprising
since Bunnymen singer Ian McCulloch was invited to recording
sessions as an unofficial studio consultant. On one occasion,
Martin was actually wearing McCulloch's jacket when recording
"In My Place". Chris Martin and Jon Buckland returned
the favour by guesting on McCulloch's solo album Slideling.
Coldplay also performed live renditions of the Bunnymen
hit "Lips Like Sugar" on a regular basis.
Coldplay toured for over a year from June 2002 to September
2003, visiting 5 continents including co-headlining festival
dates at Glastonbury festival, V2003, and Rock Werchter.
The tour showed the band's progression into a bona fide
stadium act. Many shows included elaborate lighting and
individualized screens reminiscent of the U2 Elevation Tour.
Coldplay also built a reputation of performing eclectic
covers, including Aqua's "Barbie Girl", Rammstein's
"Du Hast", and Nelly's "Hot in Herre".
During the extended tour, Coldplay also recorded a live
DVD and CD, Live 2003, at Sydney's Horden Pavilion.
In December 2003, Coldplay covered The Pretenders hit "2000
Miles", which was made available for download on their
official site. It was the top selling UK download that year,
with proceeds from the sales were donated to Future Forests
and Stop Handgun Violence campaigns. A Rush Of Blood To
The Head won two trophies at the 2003 Grammy Awards. At
the 2004 Grammy Awards, Coldplay earned Record of the Year
honours for "Clocks".
X&Y (Mid 2004-present)
Coldplay, Inside Entertainment (April 2005)2004 was a quiet
year for Coldplay, as they spent most of the year out of
spotlight resting from touring and recording their third
album. In May, Coldplay teased fans with a new song and
music video on their official site to celebrate the birth
of Martin's daughter, Apple. Famed producer Sir George Martin
introduced the promo as Coldplay and their producer Ken
Nelson performed as The Nappies, a satirised rap/glam rock
outfit. Martin joked that this music had been inspired by
Jay-Z.[3] (http://www.anecdotage.com/index.php?aid=19007).
Coldplay's third album, X&Y will be released on 6 June
2005 in the UK. The lead single "Speed of Sound",
made its radio and online music store debut on April 18
and was released as a CD on May 23, 2005. To promote the
new release, Coldplay performed at a series of intimate
secret gigs in Europe and in North America in March to May
of 2005, which resulted in sold-out shows in locations such
as San Francisco, Chicago, Toronto, Boston and New York
City. They have announced a European tour in June and July
and will be performing at 40 North American cities from
August to late September during the Twisted Logic Tour.
Coldplay will also be headlining the 2005 Coachella and
Glastonbury festivals.
The album was originally set to be released in late 2004.
In the middle of that year, Coldplay had penned over 40
new songs for their third album. Several of these songs
such as "Ladder To The Sun", "World Turned
Upside Down", and "Poor Me" had been performed
live on the A Rush Of Blood To The Head Tour. However, they
were scrapped and the band regrouped to write and record
new tracks. X&Y was recorded over 18 months in 8 studios
in New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, Liverpool, and London.
