Plan B celebrated Jack Daniel's birthday by performing a headline slot at a gig in Tennessee.
The singer admitted that he was "nervous" ahead of the concert, where he performed his biggest hits including 'She Said', 'Welcome To Hell' and 'Prayin''.
Plan B told Digital Spy: "I'm nervous about the show but also really excited. I was worried for a while that it would be a bit like glorified karaoke.
"I've found a new voice since the last album - lower in my diaphragm. I'm approaching the songs in a new way, and thankfully the band tonight are incredible."
The star was backed by a group of Nashville session veterans for his set, which took place on BBQ Hill at the Jack Daniel's distillery, Lynchberg.
He was later joined on stage by Steve Cropper, who is best known for writing the hits 'Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay', 'Soul Man' and 'In The Midnight Hour'.
Warpaint's Emily Kokal and Teresa Wayman and rapping newcomer K-Flay opened the show, which served as the culmination of a month-long celebration of 160 years of Jack Daniel's.
Plan B recently admitted that he delayed the release of his new album Ballad Of Bellmarsh due to filming commitments for his forthcoming movie Ill Manors.
