ARTIST BACKGROUND

About Coldplay

Coldplay brings together Chris Martin, Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman and Will Champion. Parachutes introduced their recorded album career in 2000, followed by A Rush of Blood to the Head and X&Y. The band broadened its studio approach while working with Brian Eno and Markus Dravs on Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends. Later records continued that interest in changing arrangements and collaborators; the original My Universe single paired Coldplay with BTS in 2021.
