Honky Tonkin’ Sheeran?
The man who IS NOT Taylor Swifts boyfriend but IS her opening act on the Red Tour, Ed Sheerean talked to Yahoo!Music about his possible journey into the country music world.
“Country music is some of the best-written music in the world, so yeah, one day, I would keep my mind open to doing a country record. … Hunter Hayes has some sick music,” he said. “There’s so much good country music out there.”
Maybe his tour mate is rubbing him off on him.
Well, I hope this British singer-songwriter understands that, when you break it down, Miz. Swift’s music isn’t really all that country. Before he decides to go down that country road, he should try to get on a tour with Eric Church, Jamey Johnson or Joey + Rory.
History has proven that too many musicians have, unsuccessfully, thought they could just jump into country music… and it just doesn’t work that way. Do your home work, not everyone is a Kenny Rogers or Darius Rucker.
Whatever Sheeran decides to do, we’re pretty sure it will be a real ear treat.
