Ed Sheeran is set to release his new album '-' (Subtract) on Sunday and has revealed the backdrop to writing this album was one of personal grief and hope.
Speaking about the new music, he said: “I had been working on Subtract for a decade, trying to sculpt the perfect acoustic album, writing and recording hundreds of songs with a clear vision of what I thought it should be. Then at the start of 2022, a series of events changed my life, my mental health, and ultimately the way I viewed music and art."
At this point in Ed's life, his wife Cheery Seaborn was pregnant with their second daughter, Jupiter. The couple secretly welcomed their second child in May 2022 after their first daughter Lyra Antarctica was born in August 2020.
