A lighthearted moment at a Coldplay concert has drawn unexpected attention for Astronomer after its CEO and Chief People Officer were shown in a close embrace on the venue’s jumbotron.  

Footage from Wednesday night’s show at Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts shows Astronomer CEO Andy Byron embracing Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot as the camera zoomed in on them.  

The pair appeared to shy away from the spotlight, shielding their faces but not before Coldplay frontman Chris Martin took notice.  

“Oh look at these two... either they’re having an affair or they’re very shy,” Martin quipped from the stage, sparking cheers and laughter from the crowd.
