People have nothing but love for Dermot Kennedy and Paul Mescal after last night’s live gig in the Natural History Museum over in London.

Dermot Kennedy performed in the Natural History Museum in London last night. Joined by special guest and man of the hour Paul Mescal, the gig went down a treat with audiences around the world who tuned in via livestream.

Agreeing that the concert was “next level”, while Dermot himself impressed, it was his duet with Paul Mescal that was the cherry on top for many fans. Joining forces for Dermot’s new song Giants, the twosome’s vocals complimented one another’s to perfection. It seems there is very little that Normal People star Paul can’t do (when he’s not getting the giggles that is).

Paul also performed an opening monologue for Some Summer Night. Shown walking through an empty room in the Museum, it’s every bit as haunting as some of his performances as Connell Waldron in Normal People. Actual goosebumps.

Thanking fans for their continued support, Dermot took to Twitter following the gig to say that it really “means the world to him”.
