"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 group wrote in a Facebook post.
They shared that the 33-year-old English singer personally went to them backstage to shake their hands and had a little chit-chat with them as if they were all friends.
"To share the stage with such a genuine and brilliant artist is a great honor and more than that, to have conversations with this very same person is beyond our wildest dreams," Ben&Ben remarked.
The nine-piece folk band extended their heartfelt grattitude to Liwanags (their fans) and those who continue to support and listen to their music.
Sheeran also had a karaoke session with Ben&Ben members and English singer and songwriter Calum Scott.
"We have a portable karaoke because karaoke is very popular in the Philippines and we are going to sing some songs," he said.
Aside from the invited special guests, Sheeran also roamed around and asked some personnel to sing.
