Coldplay’s Chris Martin Goes Undercover as Goofy Tourist To Record ‘All My Love’ Video at Las Vegas Karaoke Bar
Written by djfrosty on September 23, 2024
If that guy on stage at Dino’s Lounge in Las Vegas singing karaoke sounded a bit better than the average drunk piker from Minnesota, it’s because he did. Coldplay singer Chris Martin took a break from his band’s Music of the Spheres global juggernaut tour to have some fun in Sin City this weekend when he went incognito as a schlumpy business man on a bender while filming the video for the group’s next Moon Music single, “All My Love.”
In town for a special set on night two of the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Festival, Martin ducked into the beloved karoake bar for an post-show bit of business casual fun. Dressed in a too-big, boxy suit, bad copper wig and nerdy glasses, Martin took the stage holding a single balloon on a string to sing the swoony ballad from the band’s upcoming 10th studio album, due out on Oct. 4.
In fan video of the moment, Martin sways nervously on stage as people chatter in the background and occasionally whoop at the singer’s performance. At one point, he calls a woman up on stage, hugs her and hands over the balloon so he can power through the rest of the song unencumbered.

Dino’s posted a clip from the surprise performance — which ends with Martin ripping off his wig to wild cheers from the fans in the room — writing on Instagram, “THANK YOU CHRIS MARTIN @coldplay FOR CHOOSING US TO RECORD YOUR MUSIC VIDEO WITH 🤯 SUCH A VIRAL MOMENT. BIGGEST SURPRISE OF THE YEAR. Thank you again for being such a cool dude. Good luck on the new album & we hope to see you in the future.”
Moon Music, the follow-up to 2021’s From Earth With Love, has been previewed so far with the singles “Feels Like I’m Falling in Love” and “We Pray” featuring Little Simz, Burna Boy, Elyanna and Tini.
