Sheeran releases his new album ‘Play' on 12th September 2025 (Pre-order here) After closing the chapter on his ‘Mathematics' series, Sheeran is finally back and stepping boldly into a fresh new phase for 2025.
An artist known for constantly evolving, Sheeran’s latest album 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 wholehearted balladry. The result is a collection that plays with both the familiar and the new, creating a bold, pop-driven sound that only 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.
