Music Video Genre Research

Ed Sheeran's genre is Folk/Acoustic.

Acoustic music comprises music that solely or primarily uses instruments which produce sound through entirely acoustic means, as opposed to electric or electronic means. The retronym "acoustic music" appeared after the advent of electric instruments, such as the electric guitar, electric violinelectric organ and synthesizer.

Folk music includes both traditional music and the genre that evolved from it during the 20th century folk revival. The term originated in the 19th century but is often applied to music that is older than that. Certain types of folk music are also called world music.

I think Ed Sheeran's music suits the folk/acoustic genre.
