The performance arrives shortly after her highly anticipated sophomore record Crazymad, For Me, which was released last month. She's been doing her TV performance rounds, delivering an incredible performance on the Graham Norton Show last month.

A theatrical and offbeat fusion of country, alt-pop and indie, Hot Press's Will Russell dubbed CMAT's latest offering — which debuted at No.1 on Irish charts — as "essential listening."

"set the controls for the heart of the sun, because this is a goddamn boss record..."

A good old-fashioned concept album, CrazyMad sees a 47-year-old alternate CMAT constructing a time machine from a DIY YouTube video, to go back and save herself from a toxic relationship.

Speaking to Lucy O'Toole in the October issue of Hot Press, the singer said "I purposely try to make myself look bad on this record because I think I was bad," touching on the album's break-up theme. "I'm letting people in on a very embarrassing, pathetic, and mean side of myself, because I want people to be able to see themselves in it..."

Tune into BBC Two this Saturday, 18th November at 10:30 pm to watch CMAT and the rest perform.
