Keane are set to hit the island too

Babyshambles have rescheduled their Ibiza Rocks apperance to August 14.

As previously reported by NME.COM, the band were forced to postponed their show to allow Pete Doherty to return to rehab.

In a statement Doherty said how important playing the gig was: “We are keen fierce to come back to Ibiza and showcase all our new songs - there’s going to be some Ska laced melancholy tracks in there. Ibiza Rocks is a fucking noble and praise worthy mission and I can’t wait to get back in that Manumission villa!”

As well as Babyshambles, Keane have joined the Ibiza Rocks line-up. They will play Bar M on August 23.

Kasabian and The Fratellis have added an extra date and will now play on August 11 as well as 12, while The Futureheads will join Babyshambles at their gig on August 14.

Goldie Lookin Chain will play on August 30 and The Automatic will play on September 4.
