Ed Sheeran has unveiled a new Instagram account, @teddysoldphone, with never-before-seen photos, text messages, and lyrical doodles from his old phone, which he hasn't used since 2015. The retro digital time capsule materializes as he drops his new single 'Old Phone' on April 29, part of his upcoming album Play. The profile features intimate photos of Sheeran's personal and professional life, including early photos with Taylor Swift, Harry Styles, and One Direction, and poignant reminders of late friends Mac Miller and Jamal Edwards. Sheeran revealed he wrote 'Old Phone' at 2 a.m. while jet-lagged in India and described it as a very emotional song reflecting on life experiences since the start of his career. The drop also aligns with his ground-breaking pop-up British pub, The Old Phone, at Coachella 2025, where he debuted the song live for the first time. The listeners are invited to reflect on their own pasts with this retro project. Source: Billboard
