About

Beoga is an Irish musical group that was serving as a supporting act on Ed Sheeran's North and South American tour. They recently gained attention when they, along with three other acts, abruptly withdrew from the tour. This collective withdrawal was in solidarity with rapper Macklemore, who was reportedly dropped by the tour's promoters for making pro-Palestinian comments on stage. Ed Sheeran himself addressed the situation on social media, attributing Macklemore's removal to the promoters. Beoga's decision highlights a broader backlash against the promoters' decision and underscores the artists' stance on freedom of expression and political commentary within the context of major tours.
