Ed Sheeran Announces New Album ‘=’, ‘I See It As My Coming-Of-Age Record

official! Ed Sheeran‘s 4th studio album will be called ‘=’ (Equals), and it will be released in October 2021.
The British singer and songwriter revealed the details of his 4th solo album on Thursday, August 19, the title of which continues a sequence of mathematical symbols, “=”.

Sheeran’s forthcoming album spans 14 tracks, and includes his tribute to late Australian promoter and mentor Michael Gudinski, “Visiting Hours,” as well as the current hit single “Bad Habits.”

The album is due to drop on the 29th of October via Atlantic Records, = is nothing short of a coming-of-age effort, one that reflects the life experiences of a fully-grown man, the 30-year-old singer said in a statement.

He said, a really personal record and one that means a lot to me. My life changed greatly over the past few years – I got married, became a father, experienced loss, and I reflect on these topics over the course of the album. I see it as my coming-of-age record, and I can’t wait to share this next chapter with you.
