Coldplay And Jay-Z To Play Gig In Jo Whiley's Living Room

Coldplay and Jay-Z are to play a special gig in Radio 1 DJ Jo Whiley's living room.

The performance, which will air live on the radio station, forms part of the annual Live Lounge tour.

The five-day jaunt begins on September 14 with a special gig at Kasabian guitarist Serge Pizzorno's house in Leicester.

Whiley will then travel to X-Factor band JLS's living room in London on September 15, Biffy Clyro's Ayrshire house on September 16 and Dizzee Rascal's studio on September 17.

The tour concludes with Jay-Z and Coldplay on September 18 - just hours before the first of their two shows at London's Wembley Stadium.

As with previous Live Lounge tours, each artist play an original song and a cover.
