Coldplay has announced a 21-date 2012 North American tour, in support of its just-released fifth album, "Mylo Xyloto."The run kicks off on April 17, 2012 in Edmonton, Alberta and will conclude on thru August 11 in St. Paul, MN.
"Mylo Xyloto" became Coldplay's third No. 1 album upon its October 25 release, topping the Billboard 200 with 447,000 copies sold in its first week, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
Although the album was released after the 2012 Grammys eligibility period, its first two singles, "Every Teardrop is a Waterfall" and "Paradise," were nominated for Best Rock Performance and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, respectively.
While "Paradise" sits at No. 4 on the current Rock Songs chart, Coldplay's next single, "Charlie Brown," will be serviced to radio later this month.
Coldplay will be at the American Airlines Arena in downtown Miami, Florida on Friday June 29, 2012.
