Babyshambles frontman Pete Doherty played a secret gig in London with Sting's daughter, the singer/songwriter Coco, The London Paper reports.

The pair performed in the early hours of this morning (May 29) at the Jazz After Dark venue in front of just ten people.

Playing drums for Coco, Doherty told the crowd: "This is the amazing Coco. She's one of the reasons this country's good. She's only 17, she's a great musician and I really fancy her."

Coco, whose real name is Eliot Pauline, has reportedly signed a recording contract with label Island.
