CMAT pays tribute to Dolly Parton during Electric Picnic performance

Irish musician CMAT kicked off her performance on the main stage at Electric Picnic on Saturday night with a tribute to Dolly Parton.
"Stop, stop. I can’t do this," she told the crowd. "I can’t do the sexy CMAT show. Something has changed."
She paused momentarily, before asking: "Do you know what it is?"
CMAT then performed a cover of Parton's Jolene, one of the most famous songs from the country music star who passed away this week aged 80.
Fans didn't let the rain bother them as CMAT's set received a huge response, like Zara Larsson and Lewis Capaldi on Friday night.
Fontaines DC, Amble, and the Saw Doctors are among the main attractions on the final day of Electric Picnic.
The three-day festival comes to a close tonight. Gorillaz headlined last night, taking to the stage after CMAT.
