Ed Sheeran says first single from new project is arriving this month

While speaking to The Project NZ, Sheeran was asked about his next project and if it'll be titled - (Subtract/Minus) due to his previous mathematics-themed album names, and he revealed that he has a different project on the way, which he described as a "curveball".

Sheeran said, "That's not gonna be the next record I put out. I've got something else that's a bit more of a curveball. We've got the first thing of it dropping in 10 days ... I don't think it's gonna be a massive hit in New Zealand though, I've got to be honest. It's gonna be a big hit, somewhere else. When you hear it, you'll understand."

Get ready Aotearoa, because one of the biggest pop stars around is heading to our shores.
