To the moon and back

British rock band Coldplay’s 10th studio album, Moon Music, comes out tomorrow.

Referred to as Volume 2 of their space-themed concept project Music of the Spheres, Moon Music serves as a sequel to the band’s ninth album titled From Earth with Love, released in 2021.

The 10-track album’s closure One World is set to feature a number of Coldplay fans who were asked by the band to record and submit their singing through the band’s website, provided by a video that served as a guide.

“We have nearly finished Moon Music. If you’d like to be on it too, perhaps you could add your voice to a song called One World,” the band had said in a statement.

“All you have to do is record yourself singing ‘Ahhhhh’ for a few seconds. You can either copy the note on the site, or sing a G or C in any octave.”

The Grammy Award-winning band was formed in London in 1997 and consists of vocalist and pianist Chris Martin, guitarist Jonny Buckland, bassist Guy Berryman, and drummer and percussionist Will Champion. They are known for experimenting with music genres and creative ideas throughout their career, as well as their magnificent stadium live performances that use fireworks, lasers, confetti canons and LED wristbands that guarantee all attendees a great time regardless of their seating area.

The band is set to perform several shows in Abu Dhabi in January as part of their Music of the Spheres world tour.
