Very much the man of the moment, Ed Sheeran returns to Ireland this week following his Arthur's Day heroics for his biggest headline show to date on these shores when he pitches up at Vicar St. on Friday November 4.

The flame-haired troubadour is no stranger to Ireland and Hot Press' very own Celina Murphy was on hand to chat with the uber-talented 20 year-old during his most recent flying visit. On the agenda? Harry Potter doppelgangers, dodgy stage diving and sweet-talking your way into Beyoncé's album launch. You know, the usual.

Also up for discussion was Sheeran's Irish roots and the huge success of debut album +. Check it out below and make sure to catch the full interview in the brand new issue of Hot Press (Coronas cover), on shelves now.
