In the late 2000’s and early 2010’s, there weren’t many people who even knew who Ed Sheeran was (well, I did, but I’m not trying to brag!!!). Our favorite ginger singer/songwriter has come a long way since then, and he left the world in suspense when he told his fans that he was taking a “break” from social media. His “break” lasted way longer than what his fans were hoping for, having lasted over a year.
It wasn’t until December of 2016 when he made his social media presence known again. Sheeran changed his Twitter and Instagram profile pictures to a baby blue solid color image. The media immediately ate this up, and his Twitter and Instagram followers were freaking out. A few days later, Ed Sheeran announced that new music will be released early on in 2017. His songs “Castle on the Hill” and “Shape of You” were viewed millions of times within the first 24 hours of their release.
Soon after, he released accompanying music videos for both of his songs. His third studio album, “Divide,” is slated to release on March 3rd, 2017 and an international tour is set for March onward. The wait is over and Ed Sheeran is back and better than ever. I know I can’t wait to get my hands on “Divide” and a couple tickets to his tour.
And don’t worry! If his concerts sell out, you can try going on seaters.com/edsheeran to grab those last minute seats! I know that’s what I’m going to do!
We fans are just super thankful to finally see our red-haired, loop pedal master do what he does best.
