The group comprises vocalist Chris Martin, guitarist Jonny Buckland, bassist Guy Berryman and drummer Will Champion.

Coldplay's early material was often compared to acts such as Jeff Buckley and Radiohead, while also drawing comparisons to U2Since the release of Parachutes, Coldplay have also drawn influence from other sources, including Echo and the Bunnymen and George Harrison on A Rush of to the Head (2002) and Johnny Cash and Kraftwerk for X&Y (2005), the band's latest release.

Coldplay have been very active supporters of various social and political causes, such as Oxfam's Make Trade Fair campaign and Amnesty International. The group has also performed at various charity projects such as Band Aid 20, Live 8, and the Teenage Cancer Trust.
