CMAT

Fresh from a stellar summer of shows and building buzz, CMAT has announced her big Irish headline gigs to date. The breakout star and her Very Sexy CMAT Band will play St Anne’s Park, Dublin on May 30th and Virgin Media Park, Cork on June 20th, 2026 – following a run of sold out dates that includes headlines at the 3 Arena and London’s O2 Academy Brixton.

Her third album EURO-COUNTRY is released the following day, Friday 29th August – it features the singles Running/Planning, The Jamie Oliver Petrol Station and Take A Sexy Picture Of Me, one of the biggest songs of the summer. The record dives deep into themes of economics, identity, fame and grief, all wrapped in CMAT’s unique blend of humour, drama and killer songwriting.

Despite this being only her third album, CMAT feels culturally omnipresent. EURO-COUNTRY follows 2023’s acclaimed Crazymad, For Me, which earned her widespread recognition including a BRIT nomination for Best International Artist, and ‘Album of the Year’ nods from The Ivors, Mercury Prize and Ireland’s Choice Music Prize (which she won for her debut If My Wife New I’d Be Dead).
