 Chill  Dinner  Sad  Travel 

The Piano Salt EP is a project that takes Angie back to her humble beginnings and is a combination of reimagined piano versions of Angie’s ARIA-nominated record Salt, as well as a couple of her favourite covers. “Piano is the first instrument I learnt and the one that made me first love singing. My favourite piano song when I was young was k.d lang’s cover of Hallelujah. So this EP feels like a return to my piano-cover-loving inner kid. It’s been a really nice creative opportunity to recreate the feeling of some bigger songs off my first record, give them a new life, and cover some of my favourite songs too. It gave me something to do when we went into quarantine.The creative process also helped me shed some fear around sounding too cheesy on the piano, or too sad - I realised that doesn’t matter so much because I just love to play and sing.” - Angie McMahon
