Secret Sounds have confirmed that Ireland’s sharpest pop export CMAT is heading back to Australia in January 2026, bringing her EURO-COUNTRY tour to Perth, Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne.

Fresh from a sold-out UK & Ireland run and a breakthrough Pyramid Stage set at Glastonbury, CMAT arrives with her Very Sexy CMAT Band and a reputation for one of the most thrilling live shows around. Her shows balance high-drama country-pop spectacle with biting self-deprecation, pulling from decades of influences while still sounding unmistakably her own.

Recorded in New York with long-time collaborator Oli Deakin, her latest album EURO-COUNTRY tackles themes of identity, economics, and fame with clarity and wit. The record debuted at #1 on the Irish charts and landed Top 2 in the UK and Scotland, while drawing acclaim from The Guardian, Mojo and Rolling Stone UK. Double J crowned it Feature Album of the Week. The album also received high praise from Backseat Mafia.

With a relentless touring schedule that already includes Green Man, Primavera, Pukkelpop, NOS Alive and support slots with Sam Fender, CMAT’s Australian return feels like the natural next step in her rise.

CMAT EURO-COUNTRY AUSTRALIAN TOUR – JANUARY 2026
Tuesday 20 January – Astor Theatre Perth 
Saturday 24 January – Enmore Theatre, Sydney
Sunday 25 January – Fortitude Music Hall, Brisbane
Tuesday 27 January – Forum, Melbourne
