Martin, finding Rice-Oxley to be talented, asked him to be Coldplay's keyboard player but Rice-Oxley refused as his own band, Keane, was already operational. During a weekend on Virginia Water, they asked each other to play off their own songs on the piano. By 1997, Martin had also met then Classics student Tim Rice-Oxley. The band finally settled on the name 'Coldplay' which was suggested by Tim Crompton, a local student who had been using the name for his group. Champion had grown up playing piano, guitar, bass, and tin whistle he quickly learned the drums, despite having no previous experience. The band's lineup was completed when Will Champion joined to take up percussion duties. Coldplay have since accepted Harvey as the fifth member of the group. Martin also had recruited his longtime school friend Phil Harvey, who was studying classics at Oxford, to be the band's manager. By 1997, the group, who had renamed themselves Starfish, performed gigs for local Camden promoters at small clubs. Guy Berryman, a classmate of Martin and Buckland, later joined the group.
