GRAMMY Award-winning artist/producer duo, The Chainsmokers have released their brand new single with Coldplay, “Something Just Like This.” Drawing inspiration from their earlier successes, The Chainsmokers deliver the same synthy-goodness of Roses, coupled with Chris Martin’s vocals, to create a summer classic to brighten up these cloudy days of February. Following four consecutive Top 10 Billboard Hot 100 Hits (including the record-shattering hit “Closer”), “Something Just Like This” was debuted for excited attendees and fans worldwide with a surprise live performance from both acts at the Brit Awards.
From Chris Martin’s red silhouette to the conclusion of confetti & neon lights, The Chainsmokers & Coldplay debuted “Something Just Like This” with an undeniable energy and wonder. A special shout-out to Chris Martin for joining the crowd mid-performance, adding a little charm to the fantastic performance.
“Something Just Like This” is available now via the above platforms. Check out the lyric video, directed by James Zwadlo, below.
