Here’s Ben&Ben Reaction After Special Performance at Ed Sheeran’s Concert
BEN&BEN – Check out the reaction of the nine-piece Filipino indie folk-pop band Ben&Ben after their performance at Ed Sheeran’s concert.
Ed Sheeran enchanted a packed audience during his Mathematics Tour in the Philippines on Saturday, March 9, 2024, at Parañaque City’s SMDC Festival Grounds. Before delving into the performance of the band’s hit track, “Maybe the Night,” the English singer-songwriter invited Ben&Ben vocalists Ed Sheeran Manila Concert: Ben&Ben To Perform.
This particular song gained widespread popularity in 2017 when it served as the theme for the romantic drama “Exes Baggage,” featuring Angelica Panganiban and Carlo Aquino.
The members of Ben&Ben were still elated about their special collaboration with Ed Sheeran during the concert on Saturday night. The Filipino indie folk-pop band posted a backstage photo with Ed on Instagram, expressing their continued joy over their duet with the “Perfect” hitmaker.
“Grabe, we still can’t believe it. Para kaming nasa panaginip. We’re so grateful. We’re extremely happy. Sobrang kinikilig pa rin kami hanggang ngayon,” the band wrote.
They shared memorable encounters with Ed, including singing karaoke together, performing on his iconic round stage, and the highlight of the night, their duet of “Maybe the Night.”
“After our set, sinalubong niya kami backstage at kinamayan niya kaming lahat. Nakipag kwentuhan pa muna siya ng konti samin, na parang kaibigan lang namin,” they added.
Ben&Ben expressed that sharing the stage with “such a genuine and brilliant artist” is a “great honor,” and conversing with Ed goes beyond their “wildest dreams.”
In conclusion, the band extended their gratitude to everyone who listens to their music and their supporters, the Liwangas.
“Thank you for being with us. Ah, we love you all. We’ll be loving you ’til we’re 70 and beyond!!” they concluded, referencing Ed’s line from “Thinking Out Loud.” Apart from Ben&Ben, Calum Scott also delivered a special performance.
