Ed Sheeran and Snow Patrol's Johnny Mc Daid join forces in Derry to make the best wedding band ever

IMAGINE if Ed Sheeran and Snow Patrol decided to drop into your wedding reception and perform a few tunes? 

Well, that's exactly what happened for one Derry bride when her famous brother brought the A-Team singer along to sing at her wedding.

Snow Patrol's Johnny McDaid and singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran performed together at Mc Daid's sister Brid's wedding last weekend in the Beach Hill Country House Hotel in Derry.

The pair took to the stage and performed Snow Patrol's hit, Chasing Cars, to serenade the Derry-born bride and her Scottish love, Sandy Statham.

The duo also performed Sheeran's Tenerife Sea and Stevie Wonder's Superstition.

Manager of Beech Hill Country House Hotel, Conor Donnelly, said, "We enjoyed a wonderful day to celebrate the beautiful garden wedding of the happy couple, Brid and Sandy."

"The wedding guests were treated to very special performance," Mr Donnelly told the Belfast Telegraph, "which was fitting for such a great occasion.”

Johnny McDaid and Ed Sheeran became friends after working on Sheeran's song, Photograph together.
