St. Pancras International played host to BRIT award-winning, multi-platinum selling artist Jessie J, who delighted lunchtime commuters with a surprise performance at the station’s iconic public piano to celebrate the release of her highly anticipated sixth studio album, ‘Don’t Tease Me With A Good Time’.

Jessie treated onlookers to an intimate set that blended new songs with fan favourites, showcasing the heartfelt, genre-blending spirit of her new record. Tracks performed were ‘The Award Goes To’ and ‘I’ll Never Know Why’ from her new album, and the UK No.1
hit ‘Price Tag’. The performance brought warmth, spontaneity and community singalong energy to the concourse, with crowds gathering around the Arcade to catch a rare up-close moment from one of Britain’s most celebrated vocalists.

Recorded in Los Angeles over the past five years, ‘Don’t Tease Me With A Good Time’ is Jessie J’s first album in nearly eight years – an emotional and unfiltered body of work. Collaborators include Ryan Tedder (OneRepublic, Beyoncé, Adele), Jesse Boykins III,
Los Hendrix (SZA, Brent Faiyaz) and Marty Maro (John Legend, Anitta). The 16-track album features previous singles ‘H.A.P.P.Y’, ‘Believe In Magic’, the deeply personal ‘No Secrets’, and euphoric anthem ‘Living My Best Life’, closing on the power-ballad ‘The
Award Goes To’.

Speaking about the performance, Jessie J says: ““Today was the first time I’ve shared some of these songs with the world, and it felt incredibly personal. The St. Pancras piano is such an intimate space – no bells or whistles, just music and people.
It was the right place to let these raw, emotional songs breathe for the first time, and to feel that connection in real time with everyone who stopped to listen.”

Today’s performance follows in the footsteps of GRAMMY winners and global stars who have made surprise appearances at St. Pancras International, where the famed pianos have become a cultural landmark and a hub for spontaneous music moments that bring Londoners
and visitors together.

Peter Martin-Jones, Head of Marketing at St. Pancras International said: “Our pianos have hosted countless incredible moments and today was another reminder that St. Pancras International is more than a travel hub – it’s an exciting destination in London
for both culture and music. Jessie’s phenomenal performance added a new chapter to our legacy, following in the footsteps of other awardwinning artists who have also graced the St. Pancras pianos. You never know who you might see passing through the station!”

Jessie J will return to the O2 Arena next week for Capital’s Jingle Bell Ball 2025, and tonight she’ll appear on The Graham Norton Show. In April 2026, she embarks on a rescheduled run of intimate UK and European acoustic dates, offering fans an early chance
to experience the new album live alongside beloved classics.
