RELEASES

Ed Sheeran has announced that he will release new album âAutumn Variationsâ â his second LP of 2023 â on 29 Sep. Like recent album âSubtractâ, it was produced by The Nationalâs Aaron Dessner. Sheeran says that the record was inspired by Elgarâs âEnigma Variationsâ. âEach of the four compositions were about a different one of his friendsâ, he says. âThis is what inspired me to make this album. When I recorded âSubtractâ with Aaron Dessner, we clicked immediately. We wrote and recorded non-stop and this album was born out of that partnership. I feel he has captured the feeling of autumn so wonderfully in his sonics and I hope everyone loves it as much as I doâ.
