Angie McMahon has announced Piano Salt (October 2nd / Dualtone Records), a riveting, stripped-down companion piece to last year's debut album Salt. After a truly breakout 2019 which saw her win the Grulke Prize at SXSW for Best Developing International Act (previously won by Courtney Barnett, CHVRCHES and Jade Bird), release her debut album Salt ("recommended if you like Fiona Apple and St. Vincent" per NPR Music) and open Hozier's massive US tour; 2020 has of course had some different plans.

The Melbourne, Australia-based artist adapted with a return to the instrument that helped her fall in love with music in the first place - the piano. The new collection finds her reimagining five fan favorites from her debut album Salt, a record The FADER called "a perfect showcase of her gifts as a songwriter and vocalist," as well as stunning piano covers of Bruce Springsteen's "The River" and Lana Del Rey's "Born To Die."

“Piano is the first instrument I learnt and the one that made me first love singing," says McMahon. "My favourite piano song when I was young was k.d lang’s cover of 'Hallelujah.' So this EP feels like a return to my piano-cover-loving inner kid. It’s been a really nice creative opportunity to recreate the feeling of some bigger songs off my first record, give them a new life, and cover some of my favourite songs too. It gave me something to do when we went into quarantine. The creative process also helped me shed some fear around sounding too cheesy on the piano, or too sad - I realised that doesn’t matter so much because I just love to play and sing.”

Angie has also shared a live piano version of her hit "Slow Mover," which has amassed over 16 million Spotify plays and was certified Gold on the Australian charts. This new version of "Slow Mover" comes in conjunction with the news that Angie has received a Levi's Music Prize, aimed to help promising artists stay afloat through the pandemic.
