Ed Sheeran is new single, “Sapphire” is out now!  (Listen here).

Following the hedonistic, technicolor pop of “Azizam” and the classic, heartfelt nostalgia of “Old Phone”, Sheeran returns with “Sapphire”—a dazzling anthem of connection and unbridled joy. Radiating with vibrant pop energy and rich cross-cultural influences, the track is poised to make its mark on summer ‘25.

Sheeran’s “Sapphire” is a luminous celebration of love that transcends boundaries. Featuring captivating vocals, intricate South-Asian percussion, backing vocals and sitar by legendary Indian artist Arijit Singh, the song creates a unique tapestry that speaks to the universal language of love. Fans are taken on a sonic journey both intimate and expansive, brought to life by the production talents of Ilya Salmanzadeh, Johnny McDaid, and Savan Kotecha.

Ed Sheeran says “Sapphire was the first song I finished for Play that made me know where the album was heading. It’s why I finished the recording process in Goa surrounded by some of the best musicians in India. It was an incredible creative process. I shot the music video with Liam and Nic across my India tour earlier this year, we wanted to showcase the beauty and breadth of the country and its culture. The final jigsaw piece for me was getting Arijit on the record. It was a journey to get there and such an amazing day of music and family. Me and him have done a full Punjabi version of the song that will come out in the next few weeks, which has a lot more of him on it. This is the album version of the song, and my favourite song on the album. Hope you guys love it. x“

The video for “Sapphire” has been directed by Liam Pethick, features Arijit Singh and a cameo from iconic actor Shah Rukh Khan. It begins with Ed performing the song at dawn on a rooftop, then transitions to a vibrant journey across various locations. Ed’s travels take him from the rooftop to serene beaches, riversides, bustling markets, local kitchens and Bollywood backlots. Highlights include meeting up with Arijit for a studio session and motorcycle ride around his hometown, plus a visit to the A.R. Rahman music school, where he performs with local musicians.

Ed Sheeran releases his new album ‘Play’ on 12th September 2025. (Pre-order here) After closing the chapter on his Mathematics series, Ed Sheeran is finally back and stepping boldly into a fresh new phase for 2025.   An artist known for constantly evolving, Sheeran’s latest album, ‘Play’ finds him exploring new musical ground through collaboration with producers and musicians from around the world, as well as diving deeper into the timeless sounds and themes that have made him one of the world’s best-loved pop artists. Inspired in part by his exposure to Indian and Persian musical cultures—and their surprising connections to the Irish folk tradition he grew up with, through shared scales, rhythms, and melodies—he explored this borderless musical language, giving the album its distinctive, fresh edge.  On more familiar ground, Sheeran also reminds us why he remains the most influential singer-songwriter of his generation, delivering a series of stunning ballads and acoustic-driven songs. The result is a collection that plays with both the familiar and the new, creating a bold, pop-driven sound that only Ed Sheeran could deliver — a vibrant showcase of his artistry that feels both exciting and transformative, and promises to be one of the defining albums of the year.

Ed Sheeran has also announced three live shows at Portman Road, Ipswich which Sold-Out immediately. These kick off on Friday, July 11th, featuring special guests Myles Smith and Tori Kelly;  on July 12th the spotlight shifts to Busted and Dylan;  whilst on July 13th it will be James Blunt and Maisie Peters. These are set to take place at Ipswich Town FC’s iconic home ground – Ed being a lifelong supporter of the club, and the official shirt sponsor since 2021.  The three night stint will mark Ed’s first UK headline shows since 2023, and will include debut performances of tracks from ‘Play’ alongside fan favourites.  £1 from every ticket sold on these shows has been donated to the newly launched Live Trust, a new funding initiative from LIVE that will offer much needed financial support to those working across live music. The Live Trust will initially support the grassroots music sector that is such a vital part of the music ecosystem – from venues and artists to festivals and promoters.

The album will feature all the songs on You’ll Be Alright, Kid (Chapter 1), released last fall, alongside 10 entirely new tracks.

While You’ll Be Alright, Kid (Chapter 1) focuses on dealing with grief, You’ll Be Alright, Kid turns the page with healing, resilience, and optimism.

The album announcement comes off the heels of Alex’s newest release, “Bloodline (with Jelly Roll).” “Bloodline” debuted in the Top 10 on the Spotify US Streaming Chart and had the highest debut on May 23 on Spotify. With nearly 3 million streams, it is the top song debut in both the US and globally. The accompanying music video was dropped last week. Watch here. Directed by B.K. Barone, both Alex and Jelly Roll, star in the music video that is set in medieval times.

“Bloodline” follows Warren’s earth-shattering hit, “Ordinary,” released in February to rave reviews, counting over half a billion streams to date and topping the charts. The smash hit is #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week and counts five weeks at #1 on the Billboard Global 200 songs chart. “Ordinary” is not only Warren’s first top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, but it also makes him the first male soloist to earn an initial Hot 100 #1 this year.

“Ordinary” has also spent 11 consecutive weeks at No. 1 on the UK chart. This marks the longest running No.1 in the UK by a US male solo act in more than 60 years and the longest running No. 1 of the 2020s. “Ordinary” also continues to rise inside the top 3 at Top 40 radio. He now tallies over 1.4 billion career streams to date.

Most recently, Warren made his award show debut with a powerful performance at the 2025 American Music Awards. Watch here. Earlier this year, Warren also made his late-night debut with a performance of “Ordinary” on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Watch here. He also performed the song with Ed Sheeran at a local bar around Coachella – see his Instagram post here.

Warren is currently embarking on his sold-out headlining Cheaper Than Therapy Tour, hitting major cities across Europe and North America. He also recently announced a 15-date extension in additional cities throughout the US for a total of 62 dates. See the full routing below.

NORTH AMERICAN SUPPORT DATES FOR HOZIER

KICK OFF NEXT MONTH

May 23, 2025 – Rising Irish folk trio Amble unveil their anxiously awaited debut album, Reverie today via Warner Records. The milestone arrives as the band continues their momentous past year, marked by their upcoming North American stadium dates supporting Hozier this summer and a massive sold-out headline tour. Listen to Reverie HERE. 

Throughout the 14-track project, Amble showcases their signature sound: no-frills acoustic instrumentation, serene soundscapes, and heavenly natural harmonies. Recorded live, often in just one or two takes, the album features recent singles “Swan Song” and “Schoolyard Days,” fan favorites like “Lonely Island” and “Mary’s Pub,” plus eight brand new tracks.

“In the studio, we’re all sitting in a circle and playing together around a microphone,” says Robbie Cunningham (lead vocals/guitar). “Basically, everything is recorded live. You can feel the energy when you get the right take. If there’s even one mistake, we’ll start over. If you listen to Reverie, you’re truly hearing who we are.”

Amble’s meteoric rise is a testament to their dedication: the trio — Robbie Cunningham, Ross McNerney (mandolin/bouzouki), and Oisin McCaffrey (vocals/guitar) — only formed in late 2022 after quitting their day jobs as school teachers and a data scientist in rural Western Ireland. In just over two years, their captivating energy, descriptive storytelling, and heartfelt lyrics have cultivated a passionate global fanbase, translating into over 100 million streams and 100,000 tickets sold worldwide.

Due to the overwhelming success of their initial 2024-2025 headline run, newly announced fall dates for the Reverie Tour will extend their already extensive sold-out streak across the US, Canada, Europe/UK, and Australia throughout the first half of the year. Before embarking on these new dates, Amble will also join Hozier for major North American shows this summer, including two nights at Fenway Park in June, and play a string of sold-out shows across Ireland (King John’s Castle in Limerick June 19, Trinity Summer Series in Dublin July 5,  The Marquee Cork on July 17 and Live at the Breakwater in Wexford on July 31), plus festival appearances at this year’s Boston Calling, Summerfest, and Austin City Limits.

“One of the most high-profile soundtracks of 2025” – BILLBOARD

“In F1’s soundtrack, Atlantic Records promises a high-rpm joyride for the ages, and they have yet to build a car that can get us to premiere day fast enough” – ROLLING STONE

Atlantic Records has raised the flag on the latest track from F1®THE ALBUM, the supercharged and star-studded musical companion to Apple Original Films’ high-octane, action-packed film F1® THE MOVIE, starring Brad Pitt and directed by Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick). 11x Grammy® Award-winning Chris Stapleton officially enters the race with “Bad As I Used To Be” out now. F1® THE ALBUM is available now for pre-order HERE and arrives in stores and at all online retailers on Friday, June 27th in conjunction with the theatrical release of the feature film, distributed worldwide by Warner Bros.

“Bad As I Used To Be” was preceded by GRAMMY® Award-nominated producer/DJ Dom Dolla’s powerful “No Room For A Saint (ft. Nathan Nicholson),” global pop icon ROSÉ’s captivating “Messy” and the revved-up lead single “Lose My Mind” from multiplatinum Houston rapper, singer-songwriter, and Cactus Jack recording artist Don Toliver featuring GRAMMY® Award-winning, multiplatinum star Doja Cat. Marking his first-ever soundtrack release, “No Room For A Saint” was quickly praised by BILLBOARD as a “speed demon of a track…slick and muscular, giving an ‘80s vibe” in their “Best New Tracks” roundup. “Messy” was immediately met with critical acclaim, with BILLBOARD calling it “a cinematic love ballad” in their “Must-Hear Releases” column. Produced by Lostboy & Burns, the track premiered alongside an official music video starring ROSÉ and featuring F1® THE MOVIE stars Brad Pitt and Kerry Condon in exclusive footage from the film. Watch the official video that shut down the world-famous Las Vegas Strip, HERE.

Dom Dolla, ROSÉ, and Don Toliver were all among the soundtrack stars who attended the recent immersive F1® THE ALBUM activation at the FORMULA 1 CRYPTO.COM MIAMI GRAND PRIX 2025. Held within a private VIP Paddock just a few feet away from the official FORMULA 1 team garages, the F1® THE ALBUM experience brought the film’s fictional racing team, APXGP, to life with a recreation of their actual garage from the movie. Pass holders enjoyed interactive games, racing simulators, movie memorabilia, and an official album preview, with visits from film and soundtrack talent including Kerry Condon, Jerry Bruckheimer, Tiësto, Sexyy Red, Roddy Ricch, Myke Towers, and Burna Boy. To further celebrate the official F1® THE ALBUM announcement, the FORMULA 1 drivers’ names on their garages were replaced with those of the artists featured on the soundtrack. The unprecedented soundtrack launch also saw GRAMMY® Award-winning international icon Tiësto making FORMULA 1 history when he became the first artist ever to deliver headline performances from the bridge over the grid moments before the formation lap and from the podium after the race, capping off a truly memorable and momentous Grand Prix weekend.
