Angie McMahon

Bio

The Australian singer-songwriter Angie McMahon’s second album, Light, Dark, Light Again, chronicles her journey to reinvention and self-compassion; on it, she’s unafraid to examine the darkest places inside herself and to uncover the hope, radiance, and healing that lay on the other side. Drawing inspiration from many corners of her world—the expansive Australian skies, the work of Tibetan-Buddhist scholar Pema Chödrön, the music of Bruce Springsteen and Patti Smith—McMahon’s lyrics on Light, Dark, Light Again serve to empower and inspire anyone going through similar struggles. The 13-song collection comes four years after her breakout 2019 debut, Salt, a record that saw her being compared by NPR to “a one-woman Fleetwood Mac.”
