Irish singer-songwriter CMAT sat down with Stereogum following her standout performance at Rhode Island's Newport Folk Festival to explain the Irish cultural references scattered throughout her Mercury Prize-nominated album, Euro-Country. The video breaks down terms and names likely unfamiliar to American audiences, helping international fans better understand the record's distinctly Irish flavour.

Topics covered include figures such as the mythological hero Cú Chulainn, the Irish town of Dunboyne, the children's medicine brand Calpol, and language differences like petrol versus gasoline. CMAT continues to tour extensively through the rest of the year, including dates opening for Brandi Carlile, who also joined her on stage at Newport, plus a standalone show at the Bellwether in Los Angeles on 23rd September.
