Angie McMahon is an award winning singer-songwriter and musician. She has achieved critical acclaim for her unique voice and for the honesty, freedom and power of her lyrics. Angie speaks out on matters of climate change and social justice, and is an advocate for the place and power of young women in the Australian music industry.

Angie completed Year 12 at Loreto Mandeville Hall Toorak in 2012. During her time at Loreto she was widely regarded for her championing of the School’s contemporary music program, leading to the growth of this department as an integral part of the Music faculty today. She studied piano, guitar and trumpet, as well as singing in both ensembles and as a soloist, writing her own songs from an early age.

In 2013 Angie won a Telstra Road to Discovery competition to support Bon Jovi on their Australian tour, catching the attention of the Australian music industry. She then went on to complete a Bachelor of Arts at the University of Melbourne. In 2017 Angie won the Josh Pyke Partnership and released her debut single “Slow Mover”. Her debut album ‘Salt’ was released in 2019 and reached Number 5 on the ARIA charts. She toured Australia and internationally on the back of Salt’s success, receiving widespread praise for her live performances. Her reputation also as a unique performer of the works of other songwriters continues to attract acclaim.

In July 2023 Angie released the single “Letting Go” which was followed by the release of her second studio album ‘Light, Dark, Light Again’ in October 2023. In interviews to promote this album Angie has spoken with freedom and honesty about the mental health challenges she worked through whilst writing and recording it.

One reviewer wrote:

“Light, Dark, Light Again is a record of this moment, capturing something true about the time we live in and the way in which so many of us exist. There is fear and unease in these songs, but there’s also a quiet determination and reclamation of the mind and the self. This beautiful, soothing record shows McMahon’s skills not only as a songwriter and storyteller but as a wise guide for the busy and anxious modern mind.” (The Guardian)

Angie has been nominated for a range of awards by the AIR for which Salt won best album in 2020. Both APRA and ARIA have nominated her for numerous awards and the Australian Music Prize nominated Light Dark Light Again as best album. She will embark on national tour and international tour in 2024.
