He killed it…
Ed Sheeran will play two sold-out gigs in the 3Arena, Dublin in April this year in what he has said is only a warm up to a much bigger tour.
But, if you’re one of the lucky few who got their hands on tickets, count yourselves lucky because they were selling for extravagant prices online shortly after they sold-out.
Using his customary loop pedal, he performed the track, ‘Shape of You’, from his new album at the Grammys last night and absolutely brought the house down.

While using a loop pedal is nothing new, people were hugely impressed with the skill involved in the one man show, as well as the actual performance itself.

Watching @edsheeran use a loop pedal at the #GRAMMYs has made me realize that I'll never be that good under pressure or multitasking.
