Ed Sheeran
This week's artist is just another import to add to the long list of act that are apart of this huge British invasion that has taken place over the last few years and he goes by the name Ed Sheeran. Born Edward Christopher Sheeran is an English singer, song writer and musician. He began writing music in 2005 and moved to London in 2008 to pursue his music career. In early 2011, he released his eighth independent extended play,"No. 5 Collaboration Project" with it, Sheeran gained mainstream attention. Three months later, he was signed to Asylum /Atlantic Records. Sheeran broke through commercially in June 2011, when his first single "The A Team" debuted at number three on the UK Singles Chart. In 2012, he won two BRIT Awards for Best British Male Solo Artist, and British Breakthrough of the Year, while "The A Team" also won the Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically. What caught my attention was his acoustic version of his song call "Small Bump" He really showcase how true talent can be very entertaining with just your voice and a guitar. So take a listen and tell me what you think.
