Edward Christopher Sheeran, MBE (born 17 February 1991) is an English singer-songwriter. In early 2011, Sheeran independently released the extended play, No. 5 Collaborations Project. After signing with Asylum Records, his debut album, + (pronounced "plus"), was released in September 2011. It topped the UK and Australian charts, reached number five in the US, and has since been certified eight-times platinum in the UK.
The album contains the single "The A Team", which earned him the Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically. In 2012, Sheeran won the Brit Awards for Best British Male Solo Artist and British Breakthrough Act. "The A Team" was nominated for Song of the Year at the 2013 Grammy Awards, where he performed the song with Elton John.
There’s a story behind Darius Rucker’s collaboration with Ed Sheeran. The musician — who is set to release his first solo album in six years, Carolyn’s Boy, in October — chatted to ET Canada’s Jed Tavernier while in Niagara Falls performing at Fallsview Casino.
As Tavernier mentioned that Rucker teamed up with Sheeran on the track “Sarah” on his upcoming album, Rucker said of how the collab came about: “I met Ed when he toured with Taylor [Swift] 20 years ago, it seems like… I’m sure it was’t that long but he was on the Taylor Swift tour and we met. “My daughters were big fans of his, and we met him before the Ed Sheeran blow up.
We’ve kind of been friends over the years and I just wanted to write with him. And so I got in a plane and flew over to England.” READ MORE: Darius Rucker Was Told By Some Radio Stations Their ‘Audience Would Never Accept A Black Country Singer’ When He Was Starting Out In Genre Rucker went on, “We spent a day just writing songs.
And then actually the song on the record… He asked me who my first love was. I told [him] my fifth grade girlfriend. So, like, all day they he’s asking me questions about her. “And finally, the last song we wrote, he was like, ‘I got this idea’ and we wrote a song called ‘Sarah’ and I love it.
