The British singer-songwriter has also confirmed that his new album ‘Play’ is due out on 12 September 2025.

The full-length is the follow-up to his ‘Mathematics’ run of albums, 2011s ‘+’, 2014s ‘x’, 2017s ‘÷’, 2021s ‘=’ and 2023s ‘-‘.

In a statement, the artist shared:

“‘Play’ was an album that was made as a direct response to the darkest period of my life. Coming out of all of that I just wanted to create joy and technicolour, and explore cultures in the countries I was touring. I made this record all over the world, finished it in Goa, India, and had some of the most fun, explorative creative days of my life.

It’s a real rollercoaster of emotions from start to finish, it encapsulates everything that I love about music, and the fun in it, but also where I am in life as a human, a partner, a father.

Going into this album campaign I said to myself ‘I just want everything I do to be fun and playful’ – so that’s why we are building pubs for folk jams, doing gigs on open top buses and singing in pink cowboy hats on bars. The older I get the more I just want to enjoy things, and savour the moments that are mad and chaotic. You can pre-order ‘Play’ now, many many more playful things to come before it’s out x”

‘Old Phone’ follows previously released track ‘Azizam’, which showcased a clear shift in style for Sheeran, offering a more uplifting sound in contrast to his signature emotive ballads.
