Harry Huxley was in attendance with his mum and younger brother for the Stargazing singer's intimate show at the Jacaranda Baltic.

Harry is a student at LIPA Sixth Form College and hails Myles as his favourite musician, who inspired him to pursue a career in performing.

The 17-year-old was keen to seize his opportunity to see his hero in such a small environment, as he penned a sign asking if he could play Stargazing with him during the set in the Baltic Triangle.

Remarkably, Myles agreed to the request when he saw the sign during the Q&A section of the show.

Harry, who lives in Chester, was invited up for a duet that will live long in the memory and he said he is still reeling from the amazing moment.

He said: “That was the best experience of my entire life. Right now it still hasn't sunk in properly. I think I'll look back in a day and be like, ‘Did I just perform on stage with Myles Smith?”

He added: “My head just didn’t process what had happened for about 30 seconds after he [invited me on stage].
