But I’m sure you can tell from the sound of things that I am not going to be able to make it to the show on Friday, which I’m gutted about.

“I’ve been here in London all week and was so excited to perform Roundhouse. But… I’ve been battling some kind of bug and I thought it was getting better but it took a turn for the worse.”

He has announced new European tour dates for July, August and September and will be back in the UK on 7 August in Birmingham, followed by Manchester on the 8 August and The 02 in London on 11 August.
