Singer Ed Sheeran stunned onlookers in London with an impromptu gig outside a train station on Sunday, playing a mix of his best-selling tracks and new material.

The 'Thinking Out Loud' star wowed passers-by with a free acoustic set, which went on for 30 minutes and included six songs. 

Posting on Instagram following the gig, the star described the crowd as "awesome".

Onlookers were stunned to see the singer, wearing a bright pink t-shirt, stood outside Kings Cross station with his guitar before launching into the mini set list.

Some super-fans were aware of Sheeran's gig plans ahead of time but the majority of the crowd gathered having spotted the musician when exiting the underground station. 

Others travelled from as far as Germany to be in attendance and described the gig as "a dream come true".

Sheeran is currently promoting the release of his new single 'Azizam'.
