VIDEO: Coldplay covered a Christy Moore classic in Boston on Saturday night

Tony Cuddihy

They know a good Irish American crowd when they see one.

Coldplay were playing a show in Boston on Saturday night and it was good to see Chris Martin and co. pay homage to one of Ireland’s favourite singers – the legendary Christy Moore.

JOE reader Gemma Hogan was on hand to film Martin belting out a brilliant rendition of one of Moore’s best known ballads, ‘Ride On.’

As she says herself, it’s a great nod to Boston’s Irish heritage.
