(Manila,
8 June)—AEG Presents and Ovation
Productions are excited to announce that celebrated singer songwriter Ed Sheeran is bringing his highly
anticipated World Tour to Manila on 7 November 2017 at the MOA
Concert Grounds.
The
touring news comes straight off the back of a phenomenal few weeks for 26-year-old
Ed Sheeran. Kicking-off music in 2017 and delivering the biggest musical
comeback in recent years, Ed’s dual singles “Shape Of You” and “Castle
On The Hill” have taken the globe by storm, hitting the #1 and #2 spots
across the charts worldwide while seeing the Suffolk native break a magnitude
of records along the way.
On course to cement his third week at #1 & #2
respectively in the UK’s Official Singles Chart tomorrow [Ed made OCC
history as the first-ever artist to land the two spots respectively with two
brand new tracks], Ed recently conquered more milestones in the USA after
landing his first-ever #1 as a performer on the Billboard Hot 100 with "Shape
Of You" - with "Castle
On The Hill" sitting closely behind at #6 on the chart, Ed also became
the first artist to debut in Billboard's 'Top 10' with two songs
simultaneously. Not to mention the huge assortment of Spotify records
broken by the troubadour this month, making history with their biggest-ever
‘one week’ and ‘one day’ streams for a track, globally with “Shape Of You” (the records were
previously held by Drake’s “One Dance” and Adele’s “Hello”, respectively).
Moreover, Ed topped the streaming service’s biggest-ever opening 24 hour
streams with both singles, surpassing previous title holders, One
Direction. Reaching 132 combined #1 iTunes positions around the world and
accomplishing Apple Music’s biggest-ever ‘day’ and ‘one week’ streams, the two
singles have accumulated over 370 MILLION worldwide streams to date.
Launched
on Monday, Ed’s official
video for “Castle On The Hill”,
which was shot in his native Framlingham, Suffolk, has already reached over 10
million hits!
In
addition to Ed’s epic rise with his recorded music, the Suffolk-born artist has
also broken records in the live sphere over recent years. In July 2015 Ed took
to the stage of Wembley Stadium, solo, becoming the first-ever artist
to headline the prestigious venue without a band - with just his trademark loop
pedal and guitar – seeing him play to 240,000 people
over three consecutive sold-out nights!
Securing a very special collaboration
with Sir Elton John on the opening night, Ed followed with the release of his
live DVD ‘Jumpers for Goalposts’ at
the end of 2015, documenting the lead-up and live performances from the Wembley
weekend. Moreover, not only has Ed caught the headlines with his phenomenal
solo concerts, he's also been involved in an array of spellbinding
collaborative performances over his career to date, further proving his
colossal status in the musical world - in 2012, Ed performed at the London
Olympics' closing ceremony alongside members of Pink Floyd and Genesis for
a very special version of "Wish You Were Here" and in 2015, Ed
shared the stage with Beyonce and Gary Clark Jr. at that year's Grammy
tribute for Stevie Wonder.
Ed
Sheeran’s genre-defying third studio album ÷ (divide) was released on 3rd
March through Asylum/Atlantic Records (available now).
