Eddie Vedder and his Pearl Jam bandmates duetted with Beyoncé during the 2015 Global Citizen Festival for a cover of ‘Redemption Song’ at the festival.
Meanwhile, Coldplay have just released a Blu-Ray edition of their album ‘A Head Full Of Dreams’ (September 23).
The release sees the album presented in 5.1 Surround Sound, which Coldplay’s producer says is the ultimate format for the album.
Rik Simpson, who co-produced ‘A Head Full Of Dreams’ with Stargate, said: “The album was always conceived by the band as a dreamlike, kaleidoscopic sweep of music so it was fantastic to be able to take it to its furthest conclusion with a trip into a surround-sound dreamscape.”
