CMAT cancels French show due to illness a day before Electric Picnic gig
The Irish headline act is due to perform on the main stage tomorrow
One of the big attractions at this year’s Electric Picnic has been struck down with illness.
Irish musician CMAT was forced to cancel a gig at the Rock en Seine music festival in Paris today due to illness.
She posted a message on social media stating that: “i am very sorry to say we are no longer able to play our show at Rock en Seine today. I have Gastroenteritis and was due to travel yesterday, but was not able and I have not fully recovered to travel today. “
“Alongside this, last night's flight into Paris carrying most of the band, crew and our gear was cancelled due to a thunderstorm. So unfortunately due to this double dose it's not possible to play today - I am really sorry for anyone who was coming to see us.”
Headliner CMAT is due to play the main stage at Electric Picnic on Saturday night at 9pm.
