Ed Sheeran Parts Ways With Warner Music After 15 Years

Ed Sheeran has announced that he is officially leaving Warner Music after 15 years with the label.

Reflecting on the decision, Sheeran shared that his life and priorities have changed dramatically since signing as a teenager. While he’s grateful for the success they achieved together — evolving from a pub-performing singer-songwriter into a global stadium headliner — he says he now feels ready for a new chapter professionally.

“This isn’t a disgruntled artist leaving a label,” he explained. “It’s someone who joined as a teenager and is now a father of two, realizing that his priorities and the way he wants to work have changed.”

Sheeran ended his statement by expressing deep love and gratitude for everyone at Warner Music and everything they accomplished together.
