Coldplay performed two new songs at an LA gig over the weekend, ahead of the release of their new album A Head Full Of Dreams, and their 2016 tour - which includes two dates at Wembley Stadium. Listen to one of those songs below.
The band first teased their forthcoming seventh album with a series of mysterious London tube posters, and used a similar tactic ahead of the official announcement of their world tour, which will see them play in London, Manchester and Glasgow in June.
On Saturday (21 November), Coldplay headlined the Belasco Theatre for a gig that was streamed live on Tidal. The gig had been scheduled to happen on Friday 13 November - but was postponed following the Paris terrorist attacks of the same night.
The audio of one of those songs - 'Up & Up' - has since appeared online. Introducing it, Chris Martin described it as "the song we've been waiting to write for 15 years."
