Coldplay To Unveil ‘Ghost Stories’ Via Hour-Long NBC Special: Watch The Trailer
Aaaand now we know how that Chris Martin stint on The Voice came about. In a move reminiscent of Justin Timberlake‘s primetime special for The 20/20 Experience, Coldplay just announced they’ll be presenting Ghost Stories in a 60-minute special on NBC the night before the album’s release. Coldplay: Ghost Stories will feature 360-degree footage from the band’s intimate March performance in L.A., which will be interspersed with a cinematic filmed narrative (wouldn’t it be great if that part involved them literally telling ghost stories?).
In addition to new songs like “Magic” and “Midnight,” the special will include live renditions of past hits like “Viva La Vida,” “Paradise” and “Clocks.” The special airs May 18 at 7 p.m. ET/PT on NBC. Watch the trailer below.
