This week we jump forward 20 years from grunge to guitars, loops, and heartfelt lyrics with Ed Sheeran’s debut album +. Released in 2011, this record introduced the world to Sheeran’s blend of acoustic pop, rap-influenced delivery, and tender ballads. For Riley, this one carries a little bit of nostalgia so join us as we share favorites, skips, and talk about how this album set the stage for Sheeran’s rise. Plus, don’t miss our “Song of the Week” picks!
