Angie McMahon’s riff-heavy and anthemic debut LP Salt is out now on Dualtone Records. Following her A Couple of Songs EP ("a perfect showcase of her gifts as a songwriter and vocalist” - FADER), tens of millions of streams, and acclaimed performances around the world – including her award-winning sets at this year’s SXSW – Angie now presents her most cohesive statement yet.
In a rave review, American Songwriter declared the “moving, bold and uncompromising” Salt “takes you places few singer-songwriters dare to explore, let alone those on their first albums.”
Other fans include NPR (“at times, she sounds like a one-woman reincarnation of Fleetwood Mac”); W Magazine (“she’s making the States aware of what Australia already knew: Angie McMahon is music’s next big thing”); Consequence of Sound (“forcing you to pay attention”); Paste (“Angie McMahon is ready to take the U.S. by storm”); and Brooklyn Vegan(“her highly emotive voice sells it on first listen”).
