Seeing a performer you like live is always something truly special. Some artists have also mastered the art of the live performance, combining their talent at making music with the ability to mesmerise audiences. One such artist known for his outstanding live concerts is Ed Sheeran. The British singer gave a show at Under The Bridge, a unique live music venue in London, in 2018. During his set he also sang a moving rendition of his song "Photograph".

Ed Sheeran is known for his one-man-band style live performances. He plays his guitar and sings, but he also beats his guitar like a drum, uses foot pedals to switch different sound modes and basically puts his all into his music. Not only is this an awesome show, it also makes it look as if he is just in a recording studio and the audience simply watches him work. It's a very intimate performance style.

Sheeeran wasn't always as famours as nowadays. His career started out small, with self-published albums and his own YouTube channel. During that early time of his life as a singer and songwriter, Sheeran was used to doing almost everything on his own. He wrote his songs, performed all the instrumental parts, sang and of course recorded on his own. His self-made style of music still survives in his performance until today.

After his career took off, his means of recording music multiplied. But Sheeran has stayed true to his roots until today, as can be seen in this 2018 performance of his song "Photograph". He still puts his heart into his music and gives it his all. His fans know to appreciate it. In fact, many fans and critics claim that Ed Sheeran is one of those artists who sounds better live than recorded.
