She makes amends for last year's cancellation

Amy Winehouse has confirmed she is to play T In The Park 2008, after cancelling her appearance at last year's festival.

The singer will perform on the Main Stage on July 13 prior to sets by Kings Of Leon and REM.

Festival organiser Geoff Ellis said: "It's always been the intention to have Amy come to play T In The Park after what happened last year."

Speaking to the Daily Record, he said: "We didn't want to put pressure on Amy but she felt really bad about pulling out and, if ever she needed reassurance about how the Scottish public felt about her, playing those two nights at the [Glasgow] Barrowlands really slammed it home."

Winehouse joins acts including Kings Of Leon, REM, Rage Against The Machine, The Verve, Kaiser Chiefs, The Pigeon Detectives and Primal Scream.
