Angie McMahon's revolution songs Take 5

- Music Interviews
Angie McMahon is one of those artists that stops you in your tracks. She caught my attention back in 2017 with 'Slow Mover' and immediately I was asking, who is this? A debut album followed, then a few years later the follow up. And her second album has taken Angie into another realm, selling big iconic rooms like the Sydney Opera House and Melbourne’s Forum several times over.
I’ve wanted to Take 5 with Angie for a while, and the ideas around her latest album seemed perfect for exploration. Light, Dark, Light Again is about cycles, and I wondered which songs had the sense of revolution for her. From Bon Iver to Big Thief, this is a rich conversation about the very pulse of life, the cycles we go through, and the music that helps us through.
Bon Iver - 8 (circle)
Sara Bareilles - Once Upon Another Time
Joni Mitchell - Circle Game (live at Universal Amphitheater, Los Angeles 1974)
Janelle Monáe - Turntables
Big Thief – Not
