Coldplay to Play Super Bowl 50 Halftime

“The show has grown into the most important live music stage on the planet”, Semiao said, recalling the halftime show at the first AFC-NFC championship in 1967 featured two college marching bands.

The National Football League (NFL) promised “fun, celebration and surprises” for the event at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.

Coldplay will headline the coveted half-time slot at next year’s Super Bowl. Quite a few aren’t, of course, and the reasons for this are that the strengths that make Coldplay good (thinking very seriously about Big Topics, being unashamedly emotional) are also weaknesses that make Coldplay very weak, indeed.

With only nine weeks to rehearse, the front man said he was “really nervous” but added: “This is the greatest moment in our band’s life. We’re going to give it everything we have”, Martin promises.

British pop-rock band, Coldplay, are scheduled to headline the Pepsi Super Bowl 50 Halftime Show.

On the day before its new album arrives, Coldplay has landed arguably the world’s most coveted concert gig.

Special mention as well to additional artists who would definitely fit right into the Superbowl Halftime Show stage: Eminem, Chris Brown, and Gwen Stefani (who performed with No Doubt as Shania Twain’s guest performers in 2003).

It features a number of star guests, including Beyonce, Noel Gallagher, Tove Lo and Merry Clayton. And even if you’re into their music, you have to admit that something about Chris Martin’s melancholy voice doesn’t really jive with what we expect out of the “Big Game”.

The disco tone – anthemic, slightly cheesy – is there in the album’s first single “Adventure of a Lifetime” – the video of which was filmed in Andy Serkis’ Imaginarium studio – and the album’s title track.

The band has yet to release an official statement on the event.
