Coldplay - A Sky Full of Stars - Drum cover

Details

Description

Hi everyone!

I have wanted to cover another Coldplay song for a long time. I was thinking of Death and All His Friends (which I will probably do soon, so stay tuned for that!), but I chose to cover A Sky Full of Stars in light of the sad news of Tim Bergling a.k.a. Avicii passing away. He co-wrote and co-produced this song together with Coldplay. I remember when Ghost Stories came out and this song stood out with its happy and uplifting vibe. I added a bit here and there, but didn't want to move too much from how Will Champion plays the parts. I don't obviously use triggers or edrum pads, so you might hear a little bit of those handclap sounds from the background.

So this is my tribute for Avicii. R.I.P. Tim Bergling
