The announcement comes following her recent run of sold-out shows including wowing the stage at Glastonbury earlier this year and headline gigs at both the 3 Arena and London's O2 Academy Brixton.
She has also been known for her songs, Take A Sexy Picture Of Me and more recently EURO-COUNTRY going viral across social media, especially on TikTok.

Meanwhile, Mastercard cardholder will have access to a Mastercard Presale from 10 am on Tuesday August 26 till 10 am on Thursday August 28.
CMAT's latest album is due to be released, the after general sale opens for both shows on Friday August 29.
Her third studio album will delve into themes on economics, identity, fame and grief.
It will feature singles such as Running/Planning, The Jamie Oliver Petrol Station and viral hits Take A Sexy Picture Of Me and EURO-COUNTRY.
Speaking on recording her new album CMAT explained: "It was the most important record I made for myself. Mainly because it was making me go crazy. I'm always going to make the work I want to make, because there is a little gremlin in my head that tells me if it's sh*t. More than success, there's a bigger gremlin that wants me to make music that's really good."
She continued: "She's brutal and has ruined my life at times, but she is the keeper of my life, and she's always right."
CMAT has previously released two albums, her debut album If My Wife New I'd Be Dead in 2022, which earned her an Ireland's Choice Music Prize, and Crazy For Me in 2023 which earned her a BRIT nomination for Best International Artist and Album of the Year 'nods' from The Ivors, Mercury Prize and Ireland's Choice Music Prize.
