About Ed Sheeran
Artist Biography
In a scene from Apple Music’s Songwriter documentary about Ed Sheeran, the singer-songwriter straggles out into a yard in Malibu at dawn. Jet-lagged and carrying a cup of tea, he sits down at his laptop and begins writing a song about the moment right in front of him: the crisp air, the birdsong, the hot tea, the day ahead. Sheeran gets a full verse in, melody and all, and then pauses. “Songs are weird things,” he says. “How so?” an interviewer asks. “They just come and go,” Sheeran says, smiling. “And they never give you any warning.”
For Sheeran, songs have come rather reliably since he started writing in his youth. Born in 1991 in Halifax, England, he started out gigging on the UK pub circuit before releasing his first studio album, +, in 2011. Sheeran kept up the mathematical theme on subsequent album titles as he became one of the most unstoppable singer-songwriters in music, forging a light, polished blend of folk, pop, and hip-hop that feels bittersweet and redemptive, intimate yet universal. Whether on his own songs (“Sing,” “The A Team,” “Shape of You,” “Perfect”) or in collaboration with artists such as Taylor Swift, Chance the Rapper, and Beyoncé, Sheeran strikes a chord that feels good-natured and genuine: He’s the hopeless romantic who isn’t afraid to be vulnerable and show you his heart.
Perhaps even more important, Sheeran isn’t afraid to take chances. His 2021 smash “Bad Habits” dabbled in modern dance-pop, while in 2023, he performed an Apple Music Live session in London and released two albums: −, a vulnerable album about grief and depression; and Autumn Variations, featuring collaborations with Aaron Dessner of The National.
