See Ed Sheeran Perform ‘Teenage Dirtbag’ With Wheatus Singer in Germany

Singer enlists his high school band and Wheatus’ Brendan B. Brown to play “one of my favorite songs of all time” at Hamburg concert

Ed Sheeran reunited his high school band, flew over the lead singer of Wheatus, and performed one of his favorite songs of all time, the enduring Y2K classic “Teenage Dirtbag, for his show Saturday in Hamburg, Germany.

“I’ve got a cool surprise for you, it’s really quite cool, but bear with me,” Sheeran prefaced to the crowd. The singer then talked about his high school band and how, after splitting up decades ago, the group remained good buddies and even reunited this past April to perform at their friend’s wedding.

“When we were playing, we played a song we used to play when we were 12. And I said, ‘Fucking hell, isn’t this a great song. I wanna play this live [in concert],” Sheeran said of the wedding gig.

Sheeran then welcomed his high school band mate onstage to join him, before revealing one more surprise: To perform the still-unmentioned song, Sheeran said, “I’m gonna email the lead singer and see if he’ll come and sing it.

Wheatus’ Brendan B. Brown then appeared to join Sheeran and his high school band on the Volksparktadion stage. “One of my fav moments ever on stage, thank you Brendan. What a night,” Sheeran later added on social media alongside behind-the-scenes footage of the unlikely collaboration:
