Passengers passing through the station were wowed by the Re-Rewind hitmaker who performed as part of BBC Music Day.

BBC WM hosted the gig, which saw the record producer perform underneath the train timetables – singing his new track Do You Miss Me Much.

He said: “Music for me is everything, it’s a form of healing.

"It’s a medicine you don’t know you’re receiving until you just feel the energy and the vibration you get when you hear the song. And you walk away and just feel uplifted.

"The duty of care you have as an artist, is so important because you start to think about the lyrics you’re using and what kind of feelings you want to give your crowd.”
