WATCH: Ed Sheeran and Johnny McDaid performed at a wedding in Derry over the weekend

Alan Loughnane

The crowd loved it…

Ed Sheeran is currently on hiatus from social media and as such, we’ve seen very little of the star in the last few months.

The singer wanted some time off from the chaotic lifestyle he’d been living for the past number of years so he could focus on his music and get back to normality.

But he was in attendance at a wedding in Derry over the weekend as Brid McDaid, the sister of Snow Patrol guitarist/pianist Johnny McDaid, got married at Beech Hill Hotel in Ardmore.

Guests at the wedding were given a special treat when Ed and Johnny went on stage to perform Snow Patrol’s hit Chasing Cars.

It went down a treat…

Sheeran has close connections with Snow Patrol and back in 2012, he was the main supporting act as the band toured North America.

It’s not the first time he’s collaborated with some of the Snow Patrol members to perform Chasing Cars.
