The well-known alternative rock band formed in London, in 1997. The group comprises vocalist/pianist/guitarist Chris Martin, lead guitarist Jonny Buckland, bassist Guy Berryman and drummer/multi-instrumentalist Will Champion. The members met at the University College London (UCL) in 1996. First Chris Martin and Jonny Buckland started to have their own band and some time later Guy Berryman and Will Champion had joined the band. In 1998 the band released 500 copies of Safety EP. In december Coldplay signed up to the independent label Fierce Panda. Their first release was the three-track Brothers and Sisters EP in 1999. They were getting more and more well-known, of course it wasn't that smooth. The recording sessions for The Blue Room were tumultuous. Martin kicked Champion out of the band but later pleaded with him to return. They arrange their differences and put in place a new set of rules to keep the group intact. First the band declared an all for one approach. Coldplay is a democracy and profit were to be shared equally. Second they would fire anyone who use hard drugs.
In December 2003, they were named by readers of Rolling Stone magazine as the best artist and the best band of the year.A Rush of Blood to the Head won the Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album at the 2003 Grammy Awards. At the 2004 Grammy Awards, Coldplay earned Record of the Year for "Clocks".
Coldplay's musical style has been defined as alternative rock. They describes themselves 'very heavy soft rock'.

Don't Panic
Oh, we're sinking like stones,
All that we fought for,
All those places we've gone,
All of us are done for.
We live in a beautiful world,
Yeah we do, yeah we do,
We live in a beautiful world,
Oh, we're sinking like stones,
All that we fought for,
All those places we've gone,
All of us are done for.
We live in a beautiful world,
Yeah we do, yeah we do,
We live in a beautiful world.
Oh, all that I know,
There's nothing here to run from,
And there, everybody here's got somebody to lean on.
