Live tribute to Coldplay playing the band's greatest hits, with LED wristbands that turn the audience into part of the show.
Sky Full of Stars bring their Coldplay tribute to the Congress Theatre on Sunday 8 November, starting at 7.30pm. They're a tribute act that works their way through the band's biggest songs, and the setlist leans on the ones most people know: Viva La Vida, A Sky Full of Stars, Clocks, Yellow, Paradise and Hymn for the Weekend are all on the bill.
What sets them apart from a standard cover band is the LED wristbands. Everyone in the room gets one, and they light up as the show goes on, so the crowd becomes part of the lighting rather than just watching it from the seats. It's a bit of a nod to the way Coldplay do things on their own tours, and it's the main thing they build the night around.
They describe themselves as the most authentic tribute to Coldplay, and they talk about capturing the sound and spirit of the band while making the audience part of the show. The wristbands are the practical side of that — the room lights up around you as the hits come through, and the whole thing is pitched as an electrifying night of music and fun that gets at the exhilarating essence of one of the world's most iconic bands.
