It comes two years after they split, having struggled with their relationship during Covid lockdown.
They share a daughter Tallulah, now seven.
An onlooker said: "Billie and Johnny were all over each other. They looked really cute together.
"Billie beamed as their daughter Tallulah sat on her lap.
"Billie rested her elbow on Johnny's shoulder as the band belted out country music covers - they all looked blissfully happy.
"The family trio left around 8, thanking the band with handshakes and kisses as they left the venue."
The Sun revealed the couple split up in 2023 after eight years together and at the time a source said: "It's obviously very sad that the couple have gone their separate ways.
"But the relationship ran its course and they decided they would be better off apart.
"Like many couples, lockdown was quite tough for them, so they have had time to really think about what they want their future to look like.
'They will always treasure the time they had together and have many happy memories.

'Now they are concentrating on co-parenting their daughter and their separate careers.'
Newcastle-born Johnny, who spent time in LA writing soundtracks for Netflix and TV shows, is in a band called Tribes.
'Big romance'
Opening up about the love affair with Billie, Johnny said in 2019: 'It was a big romance. If you meet somebody like that it blows you over. This was who I wanted to be with. Every day she inspires me.
'I cannot stress enough how talented I think she is.
'I was a bit lost before but seeing what she can achieve in a day, the amount of meetings she takes and how she moves her life forward inspires me to work harder.
'She doesn't wait and see if things happen, she goes out and gets them. That's why she's so successful. It's awe-inspiring."
"She's ambitious, we both are.'
Johnny featured a heavily pregnant Billie cradling her baby bump on the cover of his 2019 solo album, Next Episode Starts in 15 Seconds.

He told how his partner had improved his life 'in so many ways'. She challenged me.
The singer said: 'She kept asking me questions like, 'What's your five-year plan?
"Where are you headed musically?' And telling me I had to be accountable for everything I did.'I felt my head had been stuck in this way of just thinking 'next job, next tour' and I wanted to keep talking to her.
'Luckily she felt the same way about me. She's made my life better in so many ways and I just feel I now know who I am, I know what I can do, I know where I want to be. And that's with her.'
The Doctor Who star was previously married to DJ Chris Evans, who was 17 years her senior.
The actress then married actor turned political activist Laurence Fox, 46, welcoming two sons Winston and Eugene before they split in 2016.
When Doctor Who was rebooted in 2005 Billie found huge success as the Time Lord's companion Rose Tyler — first alongside Christopher Eccleston and then with David led to a string of other roles, including the raunchy Secret Diary of a Call Girl.
She has been nominated for scores of awards, and in 2017 won an Olivier for best actress for her stage performance in Yerma.
She briefly dated fellow Doctor Who star Matt Smith in 2006.
