Biografi

Sheeran lahir di Halifax, West Yorkshire, dari orang tua Irlandia, sebelum pindah ke Framlingham, Suffolk. Ia belajar bermain gitar sangat awal, dan mulai menulis lagu selama bersekolah di SMA Mills Thomas di Framlingham. Kenangan masa kanak-kanaknya, seperti yang diungkapkannya dalam sebuah wawancara dengan Zane Lowe, menunjukkan bahwa ia suka mendengarkan Van Morrison dalam perjalanan ke London dengan orang tuanya dan manggung dengan Damien Rice di Irlandia ketika ia berusia 11 tahun.

Sheeran menerobos pasar musik pada Juni 2011, ketika singel debut "The A Team" meraih peringkat nomor 3 di tangga lagu Inggris.

Pada Januari 2017, Sheeran untuk pertama kalinya berhasil menduduki posisi pertama di tangga lagu Billboard Hot 100| dengan single Shape of You.
