Coldplay To Release New Single Later This Week

Coldplay are going to release a new single at the end of the week; their first new material in over two years, it will be made available on Saturday 4th June.

Posting the news in a message on their website, drummer Will Campion said:

‘Dear friends,

We’re about to play a bunch of summer festivals so it’s as good a time as any to put out a new song.

‘Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall’ will be available digitally on Friday 3rd June at 12pm (BST), except in the UK where it’ll come out on the stroke of midnight between Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th June.

We’ll also stream it here on Friday and give it a run out at Rock Im Park.

Love Will.’

The band are expected to release their forthcoming fifth studio album - the follow up to 2008’s ‘Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends’ - later in the year.
