Olivia Rodrigo covers CMAT song in BBC Live Lounge performance

The Meath singer shared her excitement on Instagram.

The 23-year-old Grammy winner was performing in BBC Radio 1's iconic Live Lounge this morning (Tuesday, 2 June), where she sang her version of When A Good Man Cries from CMAT's award-winning album, Euro-Country.

CMAT shared her excited reaction on Instagram, saying: "She sang it better than me, so now I'm toast," before asking Rodrigo for pints.

The Meath woman was overjoyed to hear Rodrigo name her hometown of Dunboyne during the cover.

This is more exciting recognition for CMAT, following her sold-out gig in Dublin's St Anne's Park last Saturday.

She also won the Ivor Novello Award for Best Album last month.

Fans of both artists have also shared their excitement on X, with one calling it their 'Roman Empire'.

It's not the first time the 'Drivers License' hitmaker has covered an Irish artist, having sang Sinéad O'Connor's 'Nothing Compares 2 U' at her sold-out Fairview Park gig in 2022, and Fontaines D.C.'s 'I Love You' at her Marlay Park gig last summer.
