Known for her transformative live performances and truthful storytelling, McMahon established herself as a global artist to watch in 2017, via her breakthrough indie-rock classic ‘Slow Mover’. Her 2019 debut album, Salt, reached #5 on the ARIA Album charts and earned multiple accolades, including the AIR Award for Best Independent Rock Album.
Released in October 2023, her eagerly anticipated follow-up, Light, Dark, Light Again, represents a bold and transformative step in McMahon’s musical journey – the album nominated by triple j for Australian Album of the Year and currently shortlisted as a finalist for the 2024 Australian Music Prize (AMP). Heralded as one of 2023’s best releases, it landed on multiple Best Of lists from outlets such as Rolling Stone AU (#3), Double J (#9), NME AU (#3), Pilerats (#1) and more, with mentions internationally from Hot Press to Consequence of Sound and more.
Co-produced by GRAMMY-nominated producer/songwriter Brad Cook (Bon Iver, Waxahatchee, Kevin Morby), McMahon’s latest album was written from the ashes of a tumultuous period marked by relationship changes, private breakdowns, and core-shaking revelations, songs resonating with hope, joy, and relief… as heard on early singles ‘Letting Go’, ‘Saturn Returning’, and ‘Exploding’.
McMahon’s explosive live show, which has seen her perform alongside international acts such as Hozier and Mumford and Sons, has garnered her multiple award nominations so far in her career. McMahon will return to the USA for more tour dates in March, before she kicks off the AU/NZ tour, and then heading back to UK and Europe for a run of dates already sold out.
“Light, Dark, Light Again is a record about facing the fear and learning it can be a portal to something bigger and better. It finds that the only certainty in life is that everything ends, and everything begins again – that there is life and death and life again, that there is light and dark and light again,” says McMahon about her Light, Dark, Light Again.
Joining Angie McMahon at all shows in Australia is special guest Annie-Rose Maloney, while in New Zealand she is supported by Kee’ahn.
Don’t miss the chance to witness Angie McMahon’s transformative and triumphant musical journey live: an unforgettable experience, showcasing her evolution into a bolder, bigger, and brighter sonic landscape.
