CMAT Announces January 2025 Australian Headlining Shows

CMAT has announced two additional shows as part of her first-ever Australian tour in January 2025. The Irish singer-songwriter had previously been announced as part of the line-up for next year’s A Day On The Green, joining headliners The Teskey Brothers as well as American acts Band Of Horses and Sierra Ferrell – the latter of whom also announced her own headlining shows last week.

She will be performing at the Corner Hotel in Melbourne on Tuesday, January 14th before heading to Sydney’s Factory Theatre to perform on Thursday, January 16th. “People of Sydney and Melbourne asked – repeatedly,” said CMAT in a press statement. “And I have listened!”

CMAT – ‘Stay For Something’

Joining CMAT as support act at both shows will be Killing Heidi frontwoman Ella Hooper – fresh from touring her Linda Rondstadt tribute show, and who will be playing the shows a month after Killing Heidi’s appearance at the 2024 Good Things festival. Hooper, in her own statement, self-described as a “CMAT superfan”.

“She straddles all the genres I love, and has classic tunes that are also fresh as fuck,” she said. “Her ability to sing the shit out of funny, sad, sassy, true stories is the mark of a young master… I think she is the pop star we need for right now.”

A pre-sale for both shows begins at 11am AEDT on Tuesday, October 29th – and can be registered for here. General sale then follows on Wednesday, Octber 30th at 12pm AEDT, and can be accessed via MG Live.
