\n\tOn Saturday (June 20), for the second show on his North American leg of his global headlining Loop Tour, Ed Sheeran <\/a>brought his eclectic, energetic and heartfelt brand of pop-tilted singer-songwriter fare to one of music\u2019s songwriting capitals, Nashville. <\/p>\n

\n\tAppropriately, the four-time Grammy winner\u2019s Nissan Stadium show, which stretched over two hours, was chock full with his signature hits, deep emotional ballads and rapid-fire, uptempo grooves. But on the Loop Tour, his solo stadium show featured Sheeran employing live audio looping instead of a full band to build the sonic tapestry of his songs, weaving in looped instrumentals, rhythms and layered vocal harmonies \u2014 and in the process, offering fans a glimpse into the process of constructing hits including his Billboard Hot 100 chart-toppers \u201cPerfect\u201d and \u201cShape of You.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI always feel like it\u2019s coming home playing here,\u201d Sheeran said of Nashville, noting that he has not only previously played Nashville venues including Nissan Stadium and the Ryman Auditorium, but he also lived in Nashville for brief periods of time, including living in a home in Hendersonville, Tenn., in 2013. Many Nashville-area songwriting sessions from that time informed his 2014 album x (\u201cMultiply\u201d). Of course, his Nashville connections extend deep, including collabs over the years with Megan Moroney, Luke Combs and Taylor Swift.<\/p>\n

\n\tJust before Sheeran took the stage Saturday night, an image of a cassette mixtape was emblazoned on the massive screen, along with a message encouraging fans to sign up to request a song for the night\u2019s setlist. In addition to planned songs such as \u201cGive Me Love,\u201d \u201cPerfect,\u201d and \u201cThinking Out Loud,\u201d this allowed for some off-the-cuff moments and fan-requested songs \u201cA Little More,\u201d \u201cDive\u201d and \u201cSupermarket Flowers.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThroughout a set punctuated often by fiery pyro and fireworks, Sheeran spent time toggling between the main stage and a smaller b-stage, using a retractable bridge that spanned over the audience, connecting the two stages. He also surprised fans by welcoming guests, traditional Irish folk band Beoga and country duo Dan + Shay (Sheeran mentioned that his friendship with Dan + Shay stretches back over 10 years when they wrote songs together).<\/p>\n

\n\tSheeran\u2019s Nashville show featured opening sets from Myles Smith, Amble and Aaron Rowe. The trek will visit more cities including Los Angeles, Chicago, Las Vegas, Philadelphia and Boston.<\/p>\n
