Ed Sheeran's Loop Tour has lost several of its supporting acts after the singer addressed the controversy surrounding Macklemore's removal from the North American leg. Aaron Rowe, Lukas Graham, Finneas and Irish band Beoga have all announced their departures, with the artists expressing solidarity with Macklemore and his support for Palestinians.
Their decisions came after Sheeran said the tour promoter removed Macklemore following objections from venues. Sheeran said he had not personally made the decision, while Macklemore has offered a different account of the circumstances surrounding his removal.
