Rixton on writing with Ed Sheeran: 'We wanted to show a more mature side'

Rixton have revealed that their next single will be a track co-written by Ed Sheeran.

The rising UK group teamed up with the 'Lego House' hitmaker for the tune 'Hotel Ceiling'.

Speaking to MTV, the band said that they wanted to exhibit a "mature" sound and that Sheeran helped them facilitate that.

They said: "I think it was just for us a bit of a no-brainer. We wanted to show a bit more of a mature side to our music and obviously Ed, we co-wrote with Ed, who we are huge fans of - he's just incredible and it just made, kind of suited the whole vibe of the album and the label told us too.

"It is very sad, it's about this guy who's just been drinking and staring at the hotel ceiling after a lovely lady has left him, kind of taking him for a fool."

The single will follow previous effort 'Wait On Me'.
