Ed SheeranMTV recently announced the debut of its inaugural new music-documentary franchise, “Nine Days and Nights of Ed Sheeran,” that will feature unmatched access to the chart-topping British singer-songwriter and premiere in the U.S. on Tuesday, June 10 at 11:00 p.m. ET/PT. One of the fastest-rising global stars in pop music today, “Nine Days and Nights of Ed Sheeran” will also air internationally on MTV channels around the world soon after the U.S. premiere (check local listings).
The documentary will show an illuminating portrait of a young artist at a critical juncture in his life, filled with the energy of a career that he hopes is largely ahead of him. In Sheeran’s own words, “[‘x’, pronounced multiply] is literally a make or break situation for me after a successful first album.” Fans will receive an intimate look at Sheeran in the studio, insight into the man who has built his career on his own terms, back in his hometown of Framlingham, Suffolk in England and performing his new music publicly for the first time, all in advance of the June 23rd worldwide release of “x.”
For an intimate discussion with Ed and his reaction to the documentary following the premiere of “Nine Days and Nights of Ed Sheeran,” both sponsored by Pepsi, fans can head over to MTV.com for the “Live from MTV Presents the Ed Sheeran After Show.” Starting May 28th, fans will have the unique ability to win a chance to attend the “Live from MTV Presents the Ed Sheeran After Show,” by using #EdSheeranNow and submitting their best Ed Sheeran fan art on Tumblr, Twitter or Instagram, thanks to Pepsi.
To celebrate the forthcoming documentary, MTV will turn over the network to Sheeran on Sunday, June 8 as he unveils “100 Things About Ed Sheeran” throughout the day through interstitials between MTV’s regular programming. In addition, MTV Hits, MTV’s 24-hour music channel, will feature Ed Sheeran music videos throughout the day.
