  1. ^ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

British rock band Coldplay have received numerous industry awards and honorary accolades throughout their career, beating and setting various world records as well. They were formed in London by Chris Martin (vocals, piano), Jonny Buckland (lead guitar), Guy Berryman (bass guitar), Will Champion (drums, percussion) and Phil Harvey (management).[1] After signing a record contract with Parlophone in 1999 and issuing Parachutes in the subsequent year, they received a Brit Award for British Album of the Year and a Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album. Follow-up A Rush of Blood to the Head (2002) matched this, while "The Scientist" and "Clocks" scored three MTV Video Music Awards and a Grammy Award for Record of the Year.
