Following her hit sensation Take A Sexy Picture Of Me, complete with its viral dance moves, CMAT today returns to our airwaves bearing the gifts of her brilliant new single The Jamie Oliver Petrol Station. Taken from her forthcoming new album EURO-COUNTRY - which is set for release on August 29, the record's third single is a real earworm as piano led melodies fade in to and out of its hypnotic percussion and trailblazing vocals. On The Jamie Oliver Petrol Station - CMAT says: "The whole point of the song is actually my annoyance and intolerance and hatred of other people serves absolutely no purpose in my life and is a really bad instinct that I have. So it’s actually a love song for Jamie Oliver, if you think about it. It’s me being like ‘don’t be a bitch and stop judging people for annoyances". Take a listen for yourselves below.
The new album - coming via AWAL Recordings - was recorded in New York and co-produced by long-time collaborator Oli Deakin and CMAT. Speaking about the LP, CMAT said: “EURO-COUNTRY is, I think, the best thing I have ever made. I felt halfway through recording it was the most important record I’ve made for myself… mainly because it was making me go crazy. I'm always going to make the work I want to make, because there is a little gremlin in my head that tells me if it’s shit. More than success, there’s a bigger gremlin that wants me to make music that’s really good. She’s brutal and has ruined my life at times, but she is the keeper of my life and she’s always right.”
