Coldplay unveil new songs during their SXSW/iTunes Festival gig

Coldplay, on March 11 night, opened the five night long iTunes Festival, which this year is taking place in Austin - during SXSW Festival.
"We’ve been away a long time", Chris Martin told the 200 fans attending the gig, "and I can’t think of a better place to come back into the world".

The whole show was streamed live online worldwide via Vevo and the band started with a new song called "Always In My Head", the opener of their forthcoming sixth album, "Ghost Stories".
The setlist also featured the new single "Magic" and a never heard before "Ghost Stories" track called "Another's Arms"; the set ended with a rendition of the Jon Hopkins produced "Midnight".
After playing "Magic", Martin said: "That's the first time we've ever played that, and I'm happy it was with you".

"Ghost Stories" is due out on May 19.
