I wasn't sure where I was going to go with today's post, but this AM I discovered Angie McMahon, thanks to a Public Tracks post from Rob Lindsey...

That got me digging into her last full length album, Light, Dark, Light Again, which is absolutely amazing. Kind of a combination between Florence & the Machine and Sharon Van Etten. Just beautiful songwriting and lyrics.

I had to pick a song of hers, so I selected "Staying Down Low" as it told a relatable story of dealing with depression... written in a way that you can hear someone talking to a partner who is struggling, or someone talking to themself, to get through the low they are experiencing. Beautiful and real.

The house is quiet Not sure if you're in your room Sometimes you're inside there To see five whole days through And then I don't always feel like talking to you But I wanna help you get moving 'Cause I'm just like you, I'm pretty scared of cutting loose But if I can do it, then you can
