Imelda May Gives Birth to Daughter: Irish Rockabilly Singer Welcomes First Child

Retro-leaning Irish songstress Imelda May has given birth to her first child, Contact Music reports. The singer and her husband, Darrel Higham, welcomed Violet Kathleen Higham on Thursday, Aug. 23, and they quickly took to Facebook to announce their "beautiful baby daughter."

May, who's known for her pin-up-girl fashion sense and rockabilly-flavored recordings, has released three albums, the most recent of which, Mayhem, arrived in 2010. She's collaborated with the likes of Jeff Beck and Bono, and last year, she contributed a song to Listen to Me: Buddy Holly, a star-studded compilation featuring Ringo Starr, Brian Wilson and Stevie Nicks, among others.
