Maren Morris popped up as a surprise guest at John Mayer's concert in Nashville on Wednesday (April 13th) night. People.com reports that she sang background vocals on “Last Train Home,” as she does on the album cut, and later returned to join John on “Slow Dancing in a Burning Room.”

After the performance, the two hugged, with Maren joking, “My high school self just died” as John joked, “I'm 65 years old.”

Both Maren and John took to social media after the show to share their experience from the evening, with Maren writing, “Hello, Maren can't be reached right now because she went back to 2006 and told her younger self this would happen in year 2022 and her brain exploded … Thank you @johnmayer for bringing your new light to Nashville and blessing our ears. WHAT a band.”

John wrote, “For as long as I live, whenever someone mentions the Nashville show in 2022, I'll remember the transcendent moments on stage with @marenmorris on both 'Last Train Home' and 'Slow Dancing in a Burning Room,' where for the first time, the true meaning of the song came to life as the duet it was always meant to be. Maren is one of my favorite artists, writers and singers of all time, and it's a great honor to share the musical space with her. What a night. The afterglow is strong.”

This isn't the first time the two have collaborated on stage — John joined Maren at the Grammys last year where he accompanied her on guitar as she performed her hit “The Bones.”
