Melbourne-based singer and musician Angie McMahon has announced her new album Light, Dark, Light Again alongside the release of her new single Letting Go.
Now existing as a rock song, despite originally being written as a piano ballad, Letting Go was created as a way for Angie to store a valuable mantra in her subconscious: “it’s okay, make mistakes!”
Angie shared: “Letting Go is a place to keep the lessons that I’ll keep on needing. Reminders to go easy and gentle, be imperfect, let things leave. The learning is never-ending. I’m always in the process of remembering to release what my brain clings to — thoughts, people, safe zones — and land in the present moment. It’s so hard for me to do, and then such a euphoric relief when it happens, so that’s what we tried to capture in the recording. I hope someone screams Letting Go in the car on an open road somewhere.”
Set to be featured on her upcoming album, Letting Go will sit amongst a group of purposefully created tracks that explores the dark places inside yourself and face your fears, as well as learn how these darker aspects in your life can help you achieve something better in the future.
Ahead of the album’s release, Angie will also hit the road for a short run of five shows spanning three continents this September, including shows in New York City, Sydney and an intimate solo show at London’s St. Pancras Old Church.
Tickets for her pre-album tour are available here and Light, Dark, Light Again is out on 27th October via AWAL.
