Since the album’s release, CMAT has garnered almost 300M streams, a major viral moment with her single "Take A Sexy Picture Of Me” and a litany of co-signs from artists like Brandi Carlile, who called her a "once in every 500 years star", Olivia Rodrigo, who covered her song “When A Good Man Cries” on BBC Radio 1, and Elton John, Robyn, Hayley Williams and Marcus Mumford have all proclaimed themselves fans.
