The 24-year-old, who shocked fans with his singing talents on Instagram back in June, posted a video of himself telling his 910,000 followers the announcement, as well as a promotional poster for the concert for which fans can buy tickets very soon.

In the video, Paul, who starred opposite Daisy Edgar-Jones in the drama written by novelist Sally Rooney, said: "Hello, I'm so thrilled and excited to announce that I'm going to be performing some pieces alongside Dermot Kennedy's amazing music on July 30th in the Natural History Museum."
