Coldplay is performing at the 51st Annual GRAMMY Awards telecast event on Sunday, February 8, 2009 at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles on the CBS Television Network from 8 – 11:30 p.m. (ET/PT).

They are nominated for seven GRAMMY awards: Record Of The Year, Song Of The Year and Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals for “Viva La Vida”; Album Of The Year and Best Rock Album for Viva La Vida; and Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocals and Best Rock Song for “Violet Hill.”

Coldplay resumes its enormously successful world tour on February 12th, heading to Japan and Australia before returning to North America for its summer dates. The band, which picked up two Q Awards and two World Music Awards in 2008, was recently honored with four Brit Awards nominations.

Viva La Vida was released in June 2008 and charted at No. 1 in 36 countries, including the United States and the United Kingdom. In the U.S., it ranked #1 on the Top Ten Selling Digital Albums chart for 2008 – and it is also the top-selling digital album in SoundScan history. Viva La Vida is the band’s fourth consecutive studio album to be certified multi-Platinum by the RIAA and is fast approaching 8 million units sold worldwide.
