X (multiply) is the hugely anticipated 2014 album by Ed Sheeran.

It follows his critically acclaimed and hugely successful 2011

 debut +; an album that was certified 6 times platinum in the 

UK alone and has achieved worldwide sales of over 4 million

 copies to date. It also saw Ed as the recipient of various 

awards for the record, including 2 Brits, an Ivor 

Novello and multiple Grammy nominations.

Never an artist to stand still, Ed recorded x at various locations 

around the globe (all the while drawing on experiences and

 influences encountered on his over three years of unrelenting 

touring) with such luminary producers as Rick Rubin (Eminem,

 Jay-Z, Red Hot Chilli Peppers), Pharrell Williams (Daft Punk, 

Robin Thicke, N.E.R.D), Benny Blanco (Rhianna, Wiz Khalifa) 

and Jeff Bhasker (Alicia Keys, Jay-Z) adding new flavours to

 the classy work of key collaborators Johnny McDaid (Snow Patrol)

and Jake Gosling (who produced +). x has the musical ingredients 

to make it one of the most important global releases of this year.  

The new set showcases the exponential growth (both vocally 

and musically) of an incredible artist, who at 23 exhibits the 

poise of a seasoned veteran. The songs for x came together 

whilst touring + and, in the same way as the latter was a 

snapshot of his life and relationship to-date, x charts his 

loves and life since. Only 'One', the perfect album opener

 and first song written for the record (in 2011 whilst on tour 

in Australia) looks back to that time and is the link between 

the two records. With 'One' under his belt, almost before he 

noticed he was writing, Ed had ten new songs and counting.

The breath-taking album-closer ‘Afire Love’ was written about 

his grandfather who passed away last Christmas. “Always the

 hero of the family - such a cool guy - he'd been suffering with 

Alzheimer’s for some time and I actually started writing that 

song two weeks before he passed away," Ed says. "I was 

thinking 'What if?' and then he did…” Then there is the 

timeless ballad ‘Photograph’ written in May 2012 in a hotel

 room in Kansas whilst on tour with Snow Patrol. McDaid 

had a piano loop playing on his laptop while Ed was making

 a Lego X-wing Fighter to give to a charity auction. He just 

started singing as he put the pieces together and the song 

grew from there. ‘Don’t’ started life as a riff on his phone 

and grew into another of x’s massive moments. The deluxe

 version of the album also includes the original song, ‘I See 

Fire’, which Ed wrote, produced and recorded for the 

second Hobbit movie. This was after Academy award-winning

 filmmaker Peter Jackson personally commissioned him. With

 no promotion besides 3 tweets from his personal 

 twitter account, it reached #2 on the UK iTunes chart. 

However it’s the Pharrell-produced lead single 'Sing', due 

out in the UK on June 1, that’s pushing the envelope for Ed. 

#Sing was the number one trend on twitter globally ahead 

of launch with the track immediately tearing up airwaves

 nationwide including a 7-week add to Radio 1 and an 

unprecedented addition straight to the Super Hit list at 

Capital FM and Kiss Network. The audio upload on YouTube

 was Ed’s biggest ever video launch, clocking 650k views

 in its first 24 hours. Already i-tunes Top 5 in 15 different 

countries (number 3 in the US), Top 20 in 36 countries 

and with all chart positions climbing, 

‘Sing’ is well on the way to being a global smash.

“I’m really proud of my new album and can’t wait for 

people to hear it.” Ed says. “It’s definitely my best work.”
