Once, twice, three times a loser at 2024’s BRITs, Mercury Music Prize and Ivors. Soon to release a new album, EURO-COUNTRY, which will rectify these errors.
What has endeared fans to her heart-sore tunes and humour is Ciara Mary-Alice Thompson’s ability to combine contradictory themes and moods: wide-eye drama with self-deprecation; the fusion of country and pop, with even more influences stretching across decades and genres. EURO-COUNTRY is no different: an aural tight-rope walk that balances big themes, specifically: the impact of economics on a small country, the attention that comes with increased fame (not all of it good) and being a woman.
“Ireland’s biggest new star” – The Independent
“CMAT – Irish country-pop singer Ciara Mary-Alice Thompson – writes funny, bone-deep songs about love and other horrors. She also plays her white acoustic guitar like an axe hero” – The Guardian
“A distinctive voice in every way” – Mojo
