No-one was expecting a surprise guest during Meghan Trainor's set at The Institute, so it was doubly exciting to see Nathan Sykes - formerly of The Wanted - show up for a spontaneous duet of her song 'Like I'm Gonna Lose You' (originally featuring John Legend). The singer, who is embarking on a solo career following the split of the band, was already in Birmingham that day having performed at Temple as part of his own 6-date UK tour, and decided to pay his friend a visit.

The sold-out show was part of the UK leg of Trainor's 'That Bass Tour' which she will wrap up tonight (April 13th) at London's O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire. The rest of the tour will end in June before the onset of her North American 'MTrain Tour' in July. Other acts to have supported Trainor so far are Sheppard and Matt Prince. She will also welcome G.R.L. in Australia later this month, and Charlie Puth and Life of Dillon for the rest of her US and Canada dates.
