Ed Sheeran: The Singer Net Worth

How rich is Ed Sheeran?

The somewhat shy Ed Sheeran is also on everyone’s lips in Germany. It’s not just about his appearances on The Voice Kids. Rather, there are hardly any singers in the music business at the moment who can hold a candle to him. If his career continues to be so successful, he could soon break the 200 million euro mark. After all, Ed Sheeran is now also appearing as the maker of a boy band, which could also contribute to his immeasurable wealth. Ed Sheeran’s estimated net worth is $170 million .

Ed Sheeran’s earnings

In an interview Ed Sheeran announced that he is casting his own band. He wanted to take this with him on his tour. Their songs should all come from the pen of the songwriter himself. This is probably the most important guarantee for the success of the new band. One can only wish the singer that he will have such a lucky hand with this project. In 2016 Ed, whose real name is Edward Christopher Sheeran, was named one of the highest paid musicians by Forbes. After all, he had earned a proud 31 million euros in just one year and thus earned the respect of his music colleagues. In 2019, he topped the earnings by earning $110 million in just one year.

Revenue per concert

Ed is known for his concerts and he sells tickets in seconds. According to a current ranking by the event platform Pollstar, he brings his organizers an average of 7 million euros per concert . (Average ticket price: 80 euros) Worldwide, only Taylor Swift could top this figure.

Some media have also reported that Ed Sheeran is a real bargain hunter. The singer should allocate just 1,155 euros a month as a kind of pocket money , which he can use at his leisure. In addition, the successful singer should continue to use the same account that he opened when he was a teenager. Ed also admitted in the interview that if he had constant access to all his money, he’d probably just throw it on his head. That’s why he deliberately set a rather low limit, although most of the money is probably spent on taxi rides.

The life of a rising superstar

Ed Sheeran’s love of music was awakened while he was still at school. He learned to play the guitar at an early age and wrote his own songs at an early age as well. These were mainly influenced by Van Morrison. His first EP, which was not well known, was released in 2005. Ed Sheeran was just 14 years old at the time. It would be a long time before Ed finally got a record deal with Atlantic Records. In 2010 the time had come and in 2011 his debut single was released under the name “The A Team” . In Germany, it was mainly the casting show “The Voice of Germany” that helped the singer become very popular in this country and made his single climb higher and higher in the charts.

In 2012, Ed Sheeran was also invited to join a number of other high-profile musicians at the Closing Ceremony of the Summer Olympics in London, UK. They covered a song by Pink Floyd together. At least since this event, the song has become world-famous. The collaboration with Taylor Swift in the same year also contributed to the enormous popularity of the British pop star. With just four albums, Ed Sheeran has achieved what most musicians can only dream of. His album “÷”, which was released in March 2017, climbed to pole position in the charts not only in the USA and England, but also in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. He was able to place all 16 songs on the album in the charts and broke several records. It also sold a staggering 11 million copies. Apparently he has Ed Sheeran’s triumphant march has just really begun !
