Shawn Mendes Mulls Next Steps After Coming On Stage With Ed Sheeran After ‘A Year And A Half’
Shawn Mendes is back on the stage after over a year.
On Saturday, he surprised many fans at Ed Sheeran’s concert in Toronto as the “U.N.I.” singer called the Canadian musician onstage. They then performed an acoustic version of Mendes’ song “There’s Nothing Holdin’ Me Back.”
Last year, the 24-year-old canceled his Wonder World Tour to focus on his mental health and said that considering he began his touring days at age 15, “it’s always been difficult to be on the road away from friends and family.”
“I feel a bit speechless about it, to be honest right now,” Mendes said on stage as he and Sheeran talked about their performance.
As the two singers discussed the fans’ reactions to the concert, Sheeran said, “I’ve had that three times in my life at gigs.”
He then listed the three gigs, “Paolo Nutini in Glasgow, Stormzy in London and now Shawn Mendes in Canada.”
Even though Mendes hasn’t been on stage for months, he has kept busy writing new songs. Last week, he released a new song, “What the Hell Are We Dying For?,” in light of the Canadian wildfires and the hazy orange sky that New Yorkers saw earlier this month.
Sheeran’s Mathematics Stadium Tour is ongoing and will conclude in September at the SoFi Stadium in California. The next concert date is set for June 24 at the FedExField in Maryland.
