Cyndi Lauper picks Rosie & the Goldbug for tour

Rosie & The Goldbug have confirmed a tour with colourful pop diva Cyndi Lauper.

They will support Lauper on the first leg of her European tour after she hand-picked them for the slot.

The Cornish three-piece unleashed their eponymous debut album last month following two single releases and have collaborated with Marcella Detroit (formerly of Shakespear's Sister) and Glasgow band El Presidente.
