BiographyColdplace are a coldplay tribute who come from the sunny east coast town of Grimsby. As keen fans of Coldplay's music, Coldplace strive to recreate the passion and feeling that comes from a live Coldplay performance.
We believe that we are the most authentic tribute you will see with front man Shane Crofts perfectly recreating the melancholic tones of Chris Martin and so naturally moving around stage and talking jibberish, just like the real thing. The talking jibberish is not an act either....
We have been together since the end of 2004, whilst we are on our third bass player and our second synth player, the backbone of the band, Shane, James and Wayne, remain the same. During our time together we have performed in some fantastic venue's, locations and to amazing crowds all over Britain and even on foreign shores. Malta has almost become a second home to the band with an incredible fanbase over there.
HIGHLIGHTS
We have had so many highlights over the past couple of years, including playing at the mathew street festival in liverpool twice, the second time was in front of an estimated 30+ thousand people which was quite mind blowing. Malta has been another major highlight for us, fisrt time there we played in front of over a thousand people and got treat like royalty, it was fantastic. With the success of this gig we got invited back straight away and when we returned we supported the one and only Sir Bob Geldoff.
We have played in many of the big music venues around the UK, one of our favourites has to be Mr Kyps' in Poole. The whole set up there is amazing and the people there are fantastic. We get such good support from the crowd, it is fantastic. Check this review from Alan Burridge off the Mr Kyps' website
"It was an evening Where mr Kyps' massed-voice choir would come into there own. Coldplace were naturally nervous. It was a new gig to them and how could they know what to expect.
With excellent musicianship from there guitarist, drummer, bass and keyboards line up, not forgetting "Chris", of course, who moved between piano and guitar with comparative ease.
The veteran of mr Kyps' that i am, i have never witnessed such overwhelming audience participation. The place heaved, it swayed, it rocked. And i hope the floorboards are in good order, 'cos i had the feeling we were going to fall into a black hole hole underneath at times."
As well as playing at amazing venues infront of some amazing people, we are actually getting noticed in the media too with appearances in numerous newspapers and magazines, a number of radio appearances including a BBC Radio 2 documentary on tribute bands and more recently we featured on SKY news during a tribute band feature they where running. Cool.
We seem to have become quite regular on our local news too, with a couple of big features on ITV's Calendar news programme.
