It has won numerous band championships and is noted for its diverse concert performances, including at the FIFA World Cup, BBC Proms, Eurovision, and the 2012 Olympic Games Opening Ceremony. In 2024, the band played alongside Coldplay as part of the British rock band’s headline set at Glastonbury Festival.
