CMAT returns with new single, "Aw, Shoot!"
CMAT has returned with "Aw, Shoot!" as the first new music from the BRIT-nominated artist since last year’s second album, Crazymad, For Me.
“So there I was, in Paris, France, in a rented flat. I was trying to write songs but it wasn’t going very well at all. I was drinking three bottles of wine a day (Cote du Provence) and I didn’t have any human contact for maybe two weeks, and I was going a little bit crazy, voices in my head etc etc," CMAT explains of the new single's origins.
"One evening there was a knock at the door. Who could it be?! I opened the door to find an American girl, who said the following: “Oh! You’re not my friend!” and then turned and walked away. Turns out she got the floors mixed-up, American system vs European flooring system. This was actually a seminal plot point in my favourite tv show Emily in Paris. And then? Well, I properly lost my mind. But on the bright side, I got a banger out of it!”
Crazymad, For Me, CMAT’s second album, is nominated for Best Album at the upcoming Ivor Novello Awards, which take place on 23 May. The record got a similar Choice Music Prize nomination in her native Ireland, where it debuted at number one in the album charts.
