Today’s announcement comes on the heels of Ed’s new album release, Play, from last week. Listen here. After closing the chapter on his Mathematics series, Sheeran stepped boldly into a fresh new phase for 2025. BILLBOARD heralded the album as “a brand new era” while USA TODAY claimed his “unrelenting drive coupled with a heart ready to burst with tenderness is tucked into nearly every note of his eighth album.” An artist who is constantly evolving, Play finds Sheeran exploring new musical ground through collaboration with producers and musicians from across the globe, as well as diving deeper into the timeless sounds and themes that have made him one of the world’s best-loved pop artists. Inspired in part by his exposure to Indian and Persian musical cultures – and their surprising connections to the Irish folk tradition he grew up with through shares scales, rhythms, and melodies – he has explored a borderless musical language that has given the album a fresh, distinctive edge.

Three years later, the group topped the Billboard Heatseekers chart with their sophomore effort, By and By, which hit #1 at AAA radio, earned the band festival slots everywhere from Outside Lands to Newport Folk, and led to TV performances on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and CBS Saturday Morning.

Tickets on sale at AXS.com
ABOUT THE ARTIST
It’s unbelievable that O.A.R. are still together thirty years since their first gig at an eighth grade talent show, but these musicians are no strangers to “unbelievable.” In fact, they’ve quietly shattered expectations at every turn over the last thirty years. Their journey may have started in Maryland, but it’s taken them around the world with multiple sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden and Red Rocks Amphitheatre, north of 1 billion streams, and multiplatinum success. Creating an expansive catalog beginning with 1997’s The Wanderer, they earned RIAA Gold certifications, three Top 15 Billboard 200 debuts, and collaborated with everyone from Robert Redford and Goo Goo Dolls to Wiz Khalifa and DJ Premier. Their latest album, The Arcade, features the fan favorite “In the Clouds.” O.A.R. members, Marc Roberge and Jerry DePizzo, are also founding partners of the Oceans Calling Festival in Ocean City, Maryland, a world-class, multi-day celebration of music and community. Working alongside and driven by their talented partner Tim Sweetwood and his team, they helped create a festival that has quickly become a cornerstone of Maryland’s cultural calendar, making a lasting positive impact on the community. “The true reward isn’t just in the music, it’s in the way it uplifts the community and shines a light on the great state of Maryland,” says Jerry DePizzo. Through their charity, Heard The World Fund, O.A.R. have raised millions for education, sustainability, and pediatric cancer causes. Heading into their 30th year in 2026, Marc Roberge, Richard On, Chris Culos, and Jerry DePizzo are still having a blast as brothers—and it shows every time they take the stage.

With billions of audio streams and video views, along with hundreds of gold and platinum certifications, his career stands as one of the most impressive in music history. Pitbull’s signature “EEEEEEEYOOOOOO” grito (yell) is one of fewer than 40 sound trademarks protected by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). Beyond music, Pitbull has built a diverse and expanding business portfolio. He founded the Mr. 305 record label and Voli 305 Vodka, and launched Globalization, a SiriusXM channel featuring global rhythmic hits. He recently made history by partnering with Florida International University (FIU) to rename its football stadium “Pitbull Stadium,” the first athletic venue in the U.S. named after an artist. Pitbull is also a passionate advocate for education. He co-founded SLAM! (Sports Leadership Arts Management), a tuition-free public charter school network recognized globally as a leading education organization, currently serving over 10,000 students across 14 schools in the U.S. In 2024, Pitbull teamed up with rock legend Bon Jovi for the powerful track “Now or Never,” blending his signature high-energy sound with Bon Jovi’s anthemic rock style. The unexpected collaboration quickly gained global traction, further proving Pitbull’s ability to transcend genres and generations. In 2025, Pitbull launched a high-energy European tour, igniting arenas across the continent and drawing massive crowds — including a viral explosion of fans proudly wearing bald caps and dubbing themselves “The Bald E’s” in honor of the artist’s signature look and larger-than-life persona. This fan movement has taken social media by storm, celebrating Pitbull’s iconic image with humor, creativity, and unity. With no signs of slowing down, Pitbull is continuing his global tour, with Australia as the next electrifying stop on his worldwide journey. Pitbull continues to push boundaries and inspire millions around the world, leaving a profound cultural impact and cementing a legacy that spans entertainment, business, education, and beyond.
