Coldplay scored its fifth number one album on the Billboard rock chart with the release of Everyday Life late last year. The band isn’t doing any big global tours until they are able to come up with a greener way to do it, but we still have the memories.

Chris Martin and company set up shop in our new HD Radio Sound Space in Los Angeles in January in a show that was streamed live on this site and on the RADIO.COM app.

Coldplay led off the intimate performance with the first single from Everyday Life, “Orphans,” and played five other songs from the album. But the band can usually be counted on to revisit their early hits when they play before big crowds.
