Singer songwriter Ed Sheeran has hinted that his next album could be a bit more experimental than his first.

Sheeran has won over many fans with his delicate pop but he told the Daily Star that he's set to experiment on his next album.

He admitted that he felt it important to record the tracks on his debut album '+' similar to how they would sound in a live setting - but that could be set to to change. He said:

"For my first album it was important to record the songs my fans had heard the way they were performed live. But I’d like to try a few different things for the next album, take more risks."

As previously reported, Sheeran recently announced a special homecoming show at Thetford Forest in July.
