After taking home the prize in 2023 for her debut LP IF My Wife New I’d Be Dead, CMAT continues the nominating streak with her sophomore offering CrazyMad, For Me.

In January, RTÉ announced the first waves of acts in the lineup for this year's Choice Music Prize – made up of artists nominated for the prestigious Irish Album of The Year award. Adding CMAT to that list, the eight-strong line-up also features Kojaque, Lankum, John Francis Flynn, Ezra Williams, Soda Blonde, Rachael Lavelle, and The Murder Capital.

Proceedings will be broadcast on RTÉ 2FM in a special four-hour extended show with Beta Da Silva from 7-11pm. A TV special will be aired the following week on Thursday 14th March at 22.30 on RTÉ2.
