Ed Sheeran has confirmed that his new album is “done” and teased an upcoming single.
On Wednesday, Sheeran shared a clip of himself in the studio with producer and songwriter Ilya Salmanzadeh, who has also worked with Lisa and Ariana Grande. The video showed him enthusiastically dancing to upcoming track Azizam, which he has also previewed with a 30-second clip on YouTube.
With backing from the Citizens Of The World Choir, Sheeran sings: “And if love’s just a game, come and play, Azizam,” over a dance beat.
The Shape Of You hitmaker captioned the clip: “Album done. Single soon. I’m very excited as you can tell.”
The fresh update follows a surprise set on the streets of New Orleans, where he was joined by a brass band and initially debuted the new song.
On Monday, he performed another surprise acoustic set at a Boston pub to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, marking the latest in a series of impromptu performances from the Perfect singer.
Last week, he surprised fans in Nashville by performing an impromptu set of his hits along with a cover of Britney Spears’ Baby One More Time.
Meanwhile, the singer previously revealed that a new song called Sapphire would be released in the coming months.
