Angie Mcmahon

Angie McMahon was born in Alphington, Victoria, Australia, and started her musical journey with piano lessons at four years of age. Her early inspiration came from Missy Higgins’ album “The Sound of White,” which helped her define her artistic direction. She performed in a nine-piece soul band called The Fabric before pursuing a solo career. In 2013, McMahon won a Telstra competition, earning her the opportunity to open for Bon Jovi during the Australian leg of their “Because We Can” tour. She later completed an arts degree at the University of Melbourne, returning to music in 2017.

In 2017, Angie McMahon’s solo career formally began when she won the prestigious Josh Pyke Partnership. That same year, she released her debut single, “Slow Mover.” This was followed by a series of singles, including “Missing Me,” “Keeping Time,” “Pasta,” and “And I Am a Woman,” along with covers of Neil Young’s “Helpless” and Fleetwood Mac’s “Silver Springs.” Her debut album, “Salt,” was released in July 2019, reaching number 5 on the ARIA Charts. In October 2019, Happy Mag recognized her as one of the most talented voices in music, placing her at no. 15 on their list of “The 15 Australian female artists changing the game right now.”

In June 2023, McMahon released “Saturn Returning,” her first new single in three years, signaling the beginning of her next chapter. This preceded the announcement of her second studio album, “Light, Dark, Light Again,” which was released in October 2023 and peaked at number 6 on the ARIA Charts. In 2024, she embarked on the “Making it Through Tour,” which included 13 shows across Australia and New Zealand, with three sold-out nights at the Forum Theatre in Melbourne. She also announced an upcoming EP, “Light Sides,” set for release in September 2024.
