Episode description
Irish artist CMAT has got it all: the voice, the songwriting talent, the charm.
Ciara Mary-Alice Thompson, (aka CMAT), has been shortlisted for the Mercury Music Prize and counts Elton John as a fan.
Her Euro-Country songs capture heartbreak with a healthy dose of humour, which is why she gravitated towards country music in the first place.
- Gary Stewart – 'She’s Actin' Single (I’m Drinkin' Doubles)'
This is one of the Best Bits from Take 5.
