Almost a couple of months ago, Roger federer was spotted trying his hand at some thing else: performing with the popular band Coldplay.
In a video posted on social media, Coldplay front man Chris Martin can be seen introducing Federer as “an original band member” just as he walks out on stage in Zurich.
The songwriter and lead vocalist for the band then says, “The band’s back together”, before they launch into Don’t Panic, one of the songs from the album Parachutes. At one point during the song, Martin asks the rest of the band to go quiet and urges Federer to continue with his shaker solo.
