CMAT – Take A Sexy Picture of Me
CMAT comes out swinging on new single “Take A Sexy Picture Of Me”—a right-hook laden belter that’s “one of the best songs she’s ever written.”
It’s the second single to be taken from her new album EURO-COUNTRY—the Irish star’s “most important record” to date, set for release on August 29.
Recent single “Running/Planning” received widespread critical acclaim.
Very few tickets now remain for October’s UK tour, with many shows, including O2 Academy Brixton and Dublin’s 3 Arena, now sold out. Prominent festival slots at Primavera, Wide Awake and Glastonbury also beckon, with a short Glasto warm-up tour just announced.
On “Take A Sexy Picture Of Me” – premiered today as a Hottest Record by Jack Saunders on BBC Radio 1 – CMAT says, “With the internet, every woman is now in the public eye. And no matter who you are, or what you look like, somebody will take umbrage with the fact that you even exist, and there’s no escaping it. ‘Take a Sexy Picture of Me’ was born out of that, because I held back for so long; not out of frustration or sadness for myself, because I AM in the public eye, but I realised it’s actually like this for every woman. It’s all women, all the time. That song is me calling out anyone who criticised my weight or how I looked… and it’s one of the best songs I’ve ever made.”
