Following the release of her acclaimed debut album, If My Wife New I’d Be Dead, CMAT has soared to No.1 on the Official Irish Albums Chart.

80% of the album's chart sales were made up of physical copies.

The Irish singer-songwriter's debut album was described by Hot Press as "one of the most thrilling Irish pop debuts of the century." Read the full review here.

The chart success lands on the same day as CMAT's highly anticipated Dublin headliner at The Academy. She plays the Limelight in Belfast tomorrow, followed by a US tour, kicking off next week.

She's followed on the chart by Olivia Rodrigo's Sour (No.2), Ed Sheeran's = (No. 3), Dave's We're All Alone In This Together (No. 4), and Dermot Kennedy's Without Fear (No.5).

On the Official Irish Singles Chart, meanwhile, Dublin collective Belters Only's 'Make Me Feel Good', featuring Jazzy, is now at No.2, following a triumphant two weeks at No.1.
