CMAT to perform a digital acoustic set of her debut album, If My Wife New I'd Be Dead

Irish pop-singer and Hot Press cover star CMAT has announced a livestream performance of her debut album, If My Wife New I'd Be Dead, on March 6.

Tickets for the online event are just €7.59, and can be reserved here.

"Hello. On March 6th, I, CMAT, an internationally renowned pop sensation, will be performing live IN YOUR HOME via the wonder of the internet," the Meath native wrote in an Instagram post last night.

The concert, titled 'If My Wife Knew I'd Be Live!' will be an acoustic presentation of the album; featuring songs, costume changes, a "very handsome," keyboardist, an omnichord and — of course — a pretend church filled with cardboard cut-out celebrities.

CMAT's brand of Americana-tinged dance-pop is one that is incredibly unique, and insanely catchy. From slow moving ballads like 'Lonely,' to the upbeat, synth laden 'No More Virgos' - the singer has time and time again proven her range and creativity.

Her debut LP, to be released February 25 via AWAL Recordings, comes after gaining critical acclaim from her 2020 and 2021 singles. The 12-track album “is about the double edged sword of comedy” and features previous singles 'I Don't Really Care For You', '2 Wrecked 2 Care' and 'I Wanna Be A Cowboy, Baby!

'I Don't Really Care for You,' graced the Irish Singles top 50 and topped the Irish Homegrown Top 20 Chart. She got nominated for Popjustice Twenty Quid Music Prize, alongside the likes of Dua Lipa and Little Mix, and was tipped as one of Hot Press's Hot For 2021 Irish Acts.

The breakout pop star will be headlining a tour of Ireland and the UK this spring, and will be playing The Academy in Dublin on March 11. Tickets can be purchased here.
