3 Nominations for the 2015 GRAMMYs

Coldplay has received 3 nominations for the 2015 GRAMMY Awards. Long gone are the days of Best Alternative Album nominations, now it's all about the Pop nominations (oh well). Very happy to see Ghost Stories nominated for Best Music Film, very well deserved.
The 57th Annual Grammy Awards will be held on February 8, 2015 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. The show will be broadcast live by CBS.

Miracles

Coldplay's new song, Miracles, is finally here! This year's Christmas prezzie comes in the shape of an uplifting soundtrack song for Angelina Jolie's new film Unbroken. So far, the song has received very positive reactions from fans.

Chris Martin plays substitute for Bono

Chris Martin got to be Bono for a day (or 9.5 minutes) during today's World AIDS Day (RED) concert in Times Square and it was magical, as you can probably tell from Chris's face of total disbelief. This comes, of course, after Bono's "high energy bicycle accident", which occurred on November 16 and left him with several fractures.

Interactive Ink video

The wonderful new interactive video for Ink is here and it features some beautiful work from the design group Blind. You can play around with the video at http://www.coldplay.com/ink/

Coldplay tour 2015

    (c) Nick Pickles

Rumours have been swirling about an upcoming Coldplay tour for 2015. It seems Live Nation has been assessing possible dates and venues. Unfortunately rumours also state that it will be their biggest and costliest tour yet, making ticket prices ridiculously expensive (I thought they would've had enough with that Mylo Xyloto tour).
Prepare to fork out a couple of thousand dollars to see the band from a mile away.
