The award-winning band, which formed in 1997, has sold more than 60 million copies of its five No. 1 albums. Its 2008 release, “Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends,” was the best-selling album of the year and the disc was the Grammy Award winner for rock album of the year.

OneRepublic released its debut album “Dreaming Out Loud” in 2007. The disc included the smash single “Apologize,” which shattered digital sales and airplay records worldwide. The band’s sophomore album, 2009’s “Waking Up,” produced three singles: “All the Right Moves,” “Secrets” and “Good Life.” OneRepublic released its third studio album, “Native,” in March 2013 where it debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard Top 200 chart. The set includes hits “If I Lose Myself,” “Feel Again” and “Counting Stars,” which reached #1 at Top 40 radio and has sold more than 4.5 million downloads. New single “Love Runs Out” is featured on a repackaged version of the gold-plus selling album “Native,” which is available now. In addition to “Love Runs Out,” the repack of “Native” includes the Grammy Award-nominated “If I Lose Myself (Alesso vs. OneRepublic Remix)” and fan favorite “Life in Color.”

OneRepublic will kick off its Native Summer Tour on May 28 at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Denver. Visit www.onerepublic.com (http://www.onerepublic.com/events) for all tour info.

Preceded by the exhilarating lead single “Sing,” “x” finds Sheeran collaborating with a celebrated group of producers that includes multiple Grammy winners Rick Rubin, Pharrell Williams and Jeff Bhasker, Grammy nominee Benny Blanco, Snow Patrol’s Johnny McDaid, and Brit Award nominee and “+” collaborator Jake Gosling.
