US R&B star Ne-Yo has revealed how his love of Coldplay has helped introduce him to music by a host of different guitar bands.
Speaking to the BBC, the star said he discovered Coldplay when he first heard their hit single 'Yellow' and then “was in love from there”.
“I went out and got 'Parachutes', I got 'Rush of Blood to the Head', I got all of them,” he said.
“Then, through Coldplay, I was introduced to Radiohead, and from them into Muse, and from Muse into Kings of Leon - it just kept rollin'.”
Ne-Yo admitted that listening all the bands had influenced his own music, as well as the records he has produced for other musicians.
“It really acted as an inspiration - new melodies, new ways to say stuff, new guitar sounds,” he said.
