A SINGER from the Vale of Glamorgan is to support Coldplay in their Music of the Spheres World Tour.
Hana Lili from Sully will support the global sensation at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on June 6 and 7.
Ms Lili credits her upbringing in the small seaside town to forging her musical identity after taking part in local and international folk singing competitions where she learned the tradition of telling stories through song.

Ms Lili recently released her EP Existential, along with its titular track.
“The EP follows the evolution of being happy with my own solitude," she said.
“It’s a chronological journey and it's an honest account from the stark loneliness of the summer months, reconnecting with friends, fixing relationships, learning to be alone and questioning everything, even our existence.
“Writing songs has always been an outlet for me, and feels more like a need than a want.”
Ms Lili, whose song Stay was played on Love Island in 2021, also said she gravitates towards writing about personal experiences.
In a review the Guardian said: “Hana Lili mines the depths of her emotions to write heartfelt songs.”
