Ed has collaborated with the five-piece group before on the songs Galway Girl and Nancy Mulligan and they also appeared on stage with him during his Glastonbury set last summer. 

Jamie Lawson and Anne Marie will also warm up the crowds before Sheeran appears to his adoring fans in what should be one of the most talked about tours of the year.
