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.
Ed Sheeran has opened up about his chart-topping career after celebrating a huge musical achievement.The 33 year old singer revealed that his debut single The A Team, which was released in 2011, has surpassed one million streams.To mark the occasion, the Lego House singer revealed that he was touched to know that his music had been listened to by so many people across the world, and reflected on how each song would allow people to connect with “different memories and emotions”.
Joining forces with Spotify for its Billions Club: The Series, Ed visited his home county of Suffolk where he showed off some of his favourite locations - and he even used one of his awards as a plate to eat some scampi and chips off of. “This is what England's about.This is my go-to meal on a Friday.
Seeing [the plaques] all laid out is pretty mad because it's been 15 years of work,” he said, speaking about his career. “Everyone uses music for different things and everyone has different memories and emotions connected to songs,” he added. “I'm really grateful that my music has travelled so far and I get to sit here and eat fish and chips out of them.” As part of his visit to Suffolk, the Shape Of You singer visited locations including his old secondary school.
He also visited Framlingham Castle, which he sings about in his single Castle on the Hill. Speaking about his childhood in the county, the dad-of-two explained that he “loved” growing up in Suffolk and admitted that he could “run wild”.
