Coldplay: We will stop making music as a band in 2025

Coldplay have announced they will stop recording music as a band in 2025.

Singer Chris Martin revealed that the band, whose hits include “Yellow”, “Fix You” and “Viva La Vida” will continue to tour after their final release.

“Our last proper record will come out in 2025, ad after that I think we will only tour,” he told Jo Whiley in a BBC interview.

His comments echo a sentiment he previously said in October following the release of the band’s ninth studio album, Music Of The Spheres.

““I think that in a few albums’ time we will finish making albums,” he told Absolute Radio.

“This is not a joke, this is true, I think after 12 that will be the end of our catalogue, but I think we will always want to play live together.

He went on to say he wanted the band to continue as a touring band “in the way that the [Rolling] Stones do it.”

Coldplay also announced plans for their 2022 world tour will be as “sustainable as possible”.

Their Music Of The Spheres tour will be powered with rechargeable batteries fuelled by renewable sources.

The band’s ambition is to make their concerts more environmentally friendly and to have one of the greenest tours in history.
