Coldplay’s Chris Martin makes surprise appearance at Glastonbury pub
Coldplay frontman Chris Martin stunned pub-goers in Bath as he pitched up and performed on Sunday, after playing to thousands at Glastonbury Festival.
The lead singer, 45, played Sky Full of Stars, from their 2014 album Ghost Stories, while he enjoyed a pint or two at The Stag Inn in Hinton Charterhouse.
Chris went to the pub with his girlfriend Dakota Johnson and sang and played the piano for the patrons.
The Stag Inn’s landlord, Chris Parkin, was shocked by his sudden appearance and called the entire thing ‘surreal’.
“I’ve seen a few things in my time but nothing quite like that,” the landlord explained.
“You never know who might pop in for a pint! What a lovely man he is,” the owner wrote on his social media post.

“The lady, who was his PA who was with him, turned and said ‘It is.”
He added: “I asked the customers just to leave them in peace outside to enjoy their drinks and everyone respected that.”
According to the landlord, he and others were discussing plans for an upcoming wedding when singer Chris asked what they were talking about.
The bride and groom of the wedding then told him that their wedding song was going to be Sky Full Of Stars, which is why he performed it for the locals.
The Coldplay singer was returning from Glastonbury after a weekend of partying and enjoying the headlining acts.
