Summary
  • Author Martin Roach traces Coldplay's history from their self-financed early records through the hit albums--including Viva La Vida's collaboration with Brian Eno--to the present day. On the way he explores the hand's professional and personal insecurities, their chosen political causes and their unswerving commitment to retaining artistic control of the music.
  • Central to the Coldplay story is the sometimes angst-ridden personality of lead vocalist Chris Martin whose marriage to Gwyneth Paltrow adds both to his celebrity and to the pressure of being a working musician. Marked by individuality, integrity and musical talent, Coldplay's is an exceptional and compelling story. In Viva Coldplay! Martin Roach does it full justice. --Book Jacket.
