Meet July’s Artist Discovery: Angie McMahon

This month we’re introducing you to a new artist who has already made quite a splash in her native Australia, but who is starting to make waves here in the States: Melbourne singer/songwriter Angie McMahon.

Her debut album Salt is raw, and sometimes brutally honest as she sings about the trials and tribulations of womanhood, relationships, feeling stuck, and making your way through life. Her powerful voice will absolutely captivate you, both at its whisper-quiet and strong belting level.

We asked her a few questions to get to know her better!

We’ll run down the process from start to finish – lacquers, plating, pressing, trimming, and more!

Test your knowledge, or learn something you didn’t know before about your favorite music format!
