๐ค Chris Martin Returns in Full Force: New EP and 2026 North American Tour Announced ๐
In a thrilling announcement that has sent waves of excitement through the global music community, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin has confirmed the release of a brand-new solo EP and a 2026 North American tour, marking his most ambitious project in years. The official announcement came on October 28, 2025, at 9:00 AM EST, during a live-streamed event from Los Angeles.
This marks Martinโs first major solo effort since his work with Coldplayโs Music of the Spheres era, and fans are already speculating that this EP could explore a deeply personal and experimental sound. The EP, tentatively titled โLight Leaksโ, is scheduled for release on February 20, 2026, featuring six tracks inspired by themes of renewal, love, and global unity.
According to Martin, the project was born out of introspection during Coldplayโs touring hiatus. โI wanted to make something that felt intimate yet universal,โ he said. โThis EP is about finding hope in the smallest moments, about the light that leaks through even in dark times.โ
The 2026 North American Tour, dubbed the โLight Leaks Live Tour,โ will kick off on April 3, 2026, in Seattle, Washington, and span over 25 major cities, including Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto, New York, and Miami, before wrapping up in Austin, Texas, on June 15, 2026. Pre-sale tickets will be available starting November 5, 2025, with general sales opening November 8 through major ticket platforms.
Industry insiders describe this return as one of the most anticipated comebacks of 2026. While Coldplay remains active, this solo project reportedly gives Martin the creative freedom to experiment with acoustic tones, ambient production, and global collaborations โ with rumored guest appearances from Billie Eilish, Jon Hopkins, and H.E.R.
Fans are already flooding social media with excitement, using the hashtag #ChrisMartin2026, as early teasers suggest that the EPโs lead single, โSilver Skies,โ will debut on January 12, 2026, accompanied by a cinematic music video shot in Iceland.
From stadium anthems to intimate storytelling, Chris Martinโs 2026 comeback looks set to be a breathtaking journey through sound, soul, and sincerity โ proving once again that his music continues to shine light across the world.
