Ed Sheeran sure knows how to make a surprise appearance.

On Monday night, the British singer shocked audience members at Blue Note jazz club in New York City when he took the stage for an impromptu performance with Frédéric Yonnet.

Sheeran, 32, played hits like “Shape of You,” Stevie Wonder’s “Superstition,” Nina Simone’s “Be My Husband” and Bill Withers’ “Ain’t No Sunshine” with Yonnet, a longtime friend and collaborator.

In the past, Sheeran and Yonnet, a French harmonica virtuoso, have teamed up to perform “Thinking Out Loud.”

“Grateful for Ed Sheeran gracing the Blue Note stage with a magical surprise impromptu performance with incredible harmonica master Frédéric Yonnet,” the jazz club wrote on Instagram.

Adding, “You never know who’s going to show up at Blue Note! ????”

Yonnet will be performing at the jazz club for two more nights this week and is also set to play the Blue Note Jazz Festival Napa later this month alongside Mary J. Blige, Chance the Rapper, Anderson .Paak, Robert Glasper and Dave Chappelle.

As for surprise appearances, the “Shivers” singer welcomed Eminem at his show in Detroit on Saturday to perform a cover of his hits “Lose Yourself” and “Stan.”

“I wondered if I can play you a cover of an Eminem song tonight,” Sheeran first asked cheering fans at Ford Field, as seen in various videos from the moment shared on social media. “I think you know it. We rehearsed it today — see how it goes.”
