Book synopsis

Author and musician Phil O'Brien explores the ascension of one of the most popular and acclaimed new rock bands. She tells the story of their rocky rise, looks at the effect of fame on the band, especially on lead singer Chris Martin, and delves into the complex emotions of their music. It's all here -- Martin's relationship with actress Gwyneth Paltrow, the endless gossip, the extraordinary commercial highs (their second album, "A Rush of Blood to the Head, " was the number-one album in 12 countries within a week of release), and the emotional lows of life on the road. "Coldplay" describes all of the band's activities to date and contains over 40 black and white photos, offering a timely appraisal of its future -- rock superstardom on a par with that of long-running internationally renowned bands such as Oasis and U2.
