In a statement, she said, "I'm really excited to be at this year's BBC Music Awards. I was there last year at the inaugural awards performing with Clean Bandit and it was a great night with a brilliant performance from Ed Sheeran among my personal favourites. To be back this year in my own right is amazing. I'm looking forward to it - roll on December."


Scottish star Hozier is also pleased to have been added to the star-studded bill. "I'm very excited to be playing at the BBC Music Awards this year alongside such a fantastic line up of artists. See you then."
