Ed Sheeran begins a new chapter!
His latest album, 'PLAY', born from the "Mathematics" series, is a transformative pop album full of joy and color, fusing music and roots from around the world! Having completed the

"Mathematics" series of '+', '×', '÷', '= ', and '-', Ed Sheeran releases his latest album, 'PLAY', in 2025 as a new phase. This work fuses Irish folk, his musical roots, with musical cultures he has encountered in various places such as India and Persia, resulting in a work that is both universal and innovative. While challenging new sounds through collaborations with producers around the world, the familiar melodies that make him return to his roots are still present.

Ed says he "just valued 'having fun'", and this album, created after emerging from a dark period, strongly reflects his love for music, the joy of life, and his current role as a father. 'PLAY' is an album that could only have been created by someone who is not afraid of change and continues to expand his artistry, and it symbolizes 2025.
