The Irish singer-songwriter, 51, first gained attention as part of the pop duo Moloko, alongside Mark Brydon. She is joining the likes of headliner London Grammar as well as Celeste, The Blessed Madonna and Pip Millett, among others. It comes following Roisin cancelling gigs last year - while sharing a "horrifying" health update.

The singer told fans she was having to rest after doctors discovered a non-cancerous abscess in her breast. On Instagram, Roisin said in a video: “Just want to say how terribly sorry I am. I’m going to have to cancel a couple of gigs. I’m cancelling All Together Now this weekend in Ireland and a show that’s scheduled for Tuesday in Croatia.

“I’m extremely sorry to anyone who follows me, anyone who is my fan knows how much I love doing what I do, love to perform and love to be there with you. “This is horrifying for me. Absolutely desperately sorry.”. Continuing, she added: “I have an abscess in my breast. "It’s not cancer thank God but it’s a very tricky thing and it’s not healing as it should yet.
