Róisín said that she was advised not to perform on Saturday night in Curraghmore due to illness.

“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. I’ve just seen a consultant today in London who has told me I need to get as much rest as possible in the next two to three weeks in the hopes of avoiding an operation."

A statement from All Together Now says: “We are devastated to announce news from @roisinmurphyofficial this afternoon that sadly she will not be able to travel to Ireland to perform at ATN this weekend. Everyone at the festival wishes Róisín a speedy recovery.”
