Between them, the two records have sold in excess of two million copies and their songs have been streamed more than one billion times.

The band have headlined festivals across the globe and sold out London O2 Arena and New York’s legendary Madison Square Garden on their last tour. They now announce a return to the O2 Arena for a special show on Friday 16 June as part of the venue’s 10th birthday celebrations. Tickets for the show are on sale at 9.00am on Friday 10 March.
