The first biography of the band who have only existed since the mid-nineties.
Coldplay's debut album 'Parachutes' was a collection of direct, soulful, songs stripped right back to expose an unusual level of raw emotion. It sold nearly five million copies world-wide, winning a clutch of NME and Q awards, two Brits and the Grammy for Best Alternative Album.
Author Martin Roach reveals how the band first met, their early gigs, their self financed EP and how they maintain a tight degree of control over their output - they co-produced both albums and artistically direct their artwork and image with close precision.
He explains how their follow up album 'A Rush Of Blood To The Head' was received with ecstatic acclaim universally, again winning 2 Brits and a Grammy in 2003 and reveals how they will spend two years touring the globe with this album.
