Teen star struck as The Libertines frontman Pete Doherty jams with him after Lincoln gig

A Lincolnshire teenager was fortunate enough to jam with legendary musician Pete Doherty after a gig in Lincoln. The Libertines, an English rock band formed in 1997 by frontmen Carl Barât and Pete Doherty, performed at The Engine Shed on Sunday, November 17.

Some of the band's most well-known songs include Don't Look Back into the Sun and Can't Stand Me Now. Noah Cross, a 16-year-old from Dunholme, had just been to see the band play at The Engine Shed and hung around with his guitar after the show in the hope that Pete Doherty would play with him.

To his surprise, the 45-year-old came over to sing and play the harmonica while Noah played the guitar. Noah, who has only been playing the guitar for almost three years, said: "To begin with, he asked me to play 'Can't Stand Me Now' and I told him I don't really know it.

"He said 'yes you do' and wasn't having any of that, so he showed me the chords for it and played the harmonica. He's one of the nicest people I've ever met."

Noah only started playing the guitar at 14 years old but grew up listening to The Libertines. His mum, Pippa Adam, posted videos of the interaction on TikTok which garnered hundreds of thousands of views.

She said: "We're just really proud of him. It made his night and Pete Doherty was absolutely superb with him. Considering all the bad press he's had over the years, he was such a humble and really nice guy."
