Coldplay were close to cancelling their plans for their ‘Music Of The Spheres’ world tour after the band faced money issues.That’s according to singer, guitarist and pianist Chris Martin, who told The Sun that a “big financial crisis” was looming for the band for the first time in their history, and that unnamed people or organisations came to their rescue.“It became financially stressful, which we hadn’t had before.
We never really had a big financial crisis,” Martin told the publication. “This was the first time where there was a point where we couldn’t do the tour due to all the money stuff.“But luckily we had some help and they saved the day and we did a few changes here and there.
This tour was about trying new things and some of them work and some don’t. We are so lucky that we can survive and sustain losses and that’s OK.”Coldplay’s current world tour is being staged in as eco-friendly a manner as is possible, including measures such as cutting direct emissions by 50 per cent compared to the band’s tour in 2016 and 2017.
They are also using 100 per cent renewable energy and having solar installations at every venue, all of which is likely to have required a bigger tour budget.Martin added that drummer and backing vocalist, Will Champion, has the final say on Coldplay’s ideas for varying up their live shows from previous ones.
