Although Palestinian-Chilean singer Elyanna is just 23, she’s already released two EPs and an album that find her combining the music of both cultures with her soaring voice — and is an opening act on Coldplay‘s massive “Music of the Spheres” tour. The group spotted her early and enlisted her to perform on the song “We Pray,” from their 2024 album “Moon Music,” and to open not just this tour but perform with her on dates last year.
Coldplay frontman Chris Martin introduced her in Ireland last year by saying “She’s wonderful, and I’m sure she’s going to be headlining this festival soon!”
Elyanna shared photos and captions from the Las Vegas stop of the tour last week, below — also featuring Martin Garrix and fellow opening act Willow.

Tyler, The Creator is one of A$AP Rocky's closest friends in the industry, so this "Don't Be Dumb" tour link-up in L.A. is no surprise.
