Sting made his way up to Boston on Thursday night for a special performance at the Revere Hotel’s Space 57.

The 16-time Grammy Award winner was in town to serenade the over 500 donors at the Lenny Zakim Fund’s 20th anniversary gala.

According to the event’s organizers, the supporters in attendance got to hear all of The Police frontman’s classic hits during the acoustic set, which included “Message in a Bottle,” “Roxanne,” and “Every Breath You Take.”

A few attendees who were lucky enough to catch Sting’s appearance posted clips of his performance on Instagram, which you can check out below.
