Read the Text:

Ed Sheeran was born on February 17, 1991, in Halifax, West Yorkshire, in the
United Kingdom. When he was young, he began playing guitar, showing early
promise as a musical talent. When he was 11, Sheeran met singer- songwriter
Damien Rice backstage at one of Rice’s shows, and the young musician found
added inspiration. As the story goes, Rice told Sheeran to write his own music, and
Sheeran set out the next day to do just that.
It wasn’t long before Sheeran was recording CDs and selling them, and he soon
put together his first official EP, The Orange Room. With that accomplishment and
his abiding ambition driving him, at only 14 years of age, Sheeran headed to
London for the summer. Thinking he could find gigs on the big city, Sheeran left
home with his guitar and a backpack full of clothes, and his musical career took
flight.
