The Berlin leg of The xx’s Night + Day summer gig series took place over the weekend, with the likes of Chromatics, Mount Kimbie, Kindness and Mykki Blanco filling the bill.
Another of the supports was Jessie Ware, who returned as day swiftly became night to perform a collaborative rendition of Stardust’s ‘The Music Sounds Better With You’, before morphing it into Modjo’s ‘Lady (Hear Me Tonight)’, all in front of a camera phone wielding crowd.
Watch the entirely unexpected performance below:
