Griff Unveils Performance Video For Astronaut With Coldplay's Chris Martin

Griff has shared a performance video for her track Astronaut.
The ballad features piano from Coldplay's Chris Martin and appears on the Kings Langley-born singer-songwriter's new EP, 'vert1go vol.1', released in October. The clip, meanwhile, was shot at the Greenwich Maritime Museum. Griff commented:
"I wrote Astronaut about the idea of being left behind. In young relationships, when someone needs time to figure out and find themselves without you, it hurts because you’re left wondering what about yourself wasn’t enough for them."
The collaboration sparked when Martin asked Griff to play him what she was working on while the two acts were touring together.
"He really got stuck in," she added. "We listened to maybe 30 of my songs together, but he kept stopping Astronaut. Chris advised me to strip it all back and keep things simple, so I had the cheek to ask him to play on it himself and I am so honoured he agreed."
Griff will embark on a UK and European tour in the spring, following a handful of Australian and New Zealand festival dates earlier in the year. Tickets are on sale now.
