Cerys Matthews, formerly vocalist of Welsh indie-rock band Catatonia, has been added to the star-studded bill for the Barretstown Inspirations gig on 30th March at the Olympia in Dublin. The stellar line-up for the show already features the likes of Sinead O'Connor, Something Happens, Republic of Loose, Engine Alley, The 4 of Us and many more.
An Emotional Fish will also be performing their first Irish show in 15 years.
Barretstown is the camp for children with cancer and other life threatening illnesses set up by the late Hollywood actor Paul Newman. Every year over 1,800 children aged between 7 and 17 come to Barretstown to take part in their unique programmes. After taking part in these programmes children go home with more confidence, self-esteem and most importantly the realisation that happiness is not just for healthy children.
Tickets for the show are available here.
