Ed Sheeran has postponed a number of Asia tour dates in October and November, but Bangkok is not one of them. 

 

The pop singer sent shockwaves throughout the region yesterday with a post on Instagram of his arm in a cast after a bicycle accident.

 

Today, he confirmed that a fractured right wrist and left elbow means he has to postpone concerts in Taipei (Oct 22), Osaka (Oct 25), Seoul (Oct 29), Tokyo (Oct 31, Nov 1) and Hong Kong (Nov 4-5).

 

 

 

 

 

 

The injury also casts doubt over further shows in the Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, India and UAE.  

 

Sheeran is one of the most popular singers in the industry thanks to his seven-times platinum debut album Plus with hits like "The A Team" and "Lego House." His second album Multiply earned him the Brit Award for Album of the Year thanks to songs like "Thinking Out Loud."

 

Now, he's on tour to promote his third and latest album, Divide, along with hit songs like "Shape of You" and "Castle on the Hill," whose success led Sheeran to break a new record for an artist having two songs debut in the US top ten chart in the same week.
