Pop Star Ed Sheeran Wants To “Transition” To Country
Pop singer Ed Sheeran, who recently performed solo and with Luke Combs at the ACM Awards, is thinking about giving country music a shot.
In an interview with “Billboard” during ACM rehearsals he said…
“I talk about this to my wife all the time. I would love to transition to country. I love the culture of it . . . I just love the songwriting. It’s just like brilliant songs.”
Ed has some experience in Music City, he lived in Nashville two different times and soaked in a lot while touring with Taylor Swift during her country years.
“It’s like a community. There’s not a place in Europe where you could point and say, ‘That’s the home of songwriting.’ Nashville is a hub of incredible songwriters, incredible performers. I really feel inspired being around everyone.”
Ed Sheeran brought in Luke Combs for a new version of his song “Life Goes On”.
