WithBushstock Festival taking over Shepherd's Bush in London this weekend, we talk about Harmony Bigsby guitars and making memories with Angie McMahon ahead of her performance at the festival.

Well I've loved Matthew and the Atlas since before I could write a song, so I have to check them out, and there are some awesome looking female acts I'd like to watch, like Nadia Nair and Grace Carter. But I've actually never seen any of this lineup, so I'm keen to wander and discover!


The next year will have my debut album release, which I'm pretty excited about, and a bunch of gigs around that I think! Hopefully back on this side of the world as well as in Australia. And juggling that work/life balance, trying to stay healthy while working hard still. It'll be fun!


I actually copied a friend of mine who has the same guitar. He let me borrow it for a few months, and I was so sad giving it back to him that I went online and bought an identical one online. It's from the 60s, and I had it shipped over from America. The customs fees were worth it.


Well it's pretty unreal, trying to find your feet and be confident in places far from home. But the people make it really special - the people you travel with and the people in the crowds and the people working on the shows with you, the interactions with people are so valuable. I guess my favourite thing is making memories!


Bushstock takes place this weekend on Saturday 23rd June 2018, you can buy your tickets here from their website. Angie McMahon will be playing the Library at the Bush Theatre at 12:45pm


"Anji" (also spelled "Angi", "Angie" or "On gee") is an acoustic fingerstyle guitar piece composed and recorded by noted folk guitarist Davy Graham in 1961 and originally released as part of his EP debut 3/4 AD.[1][2] The piece is one of the best-known acoustic blues-folk guitar pieces ever composed, with many notable artists covering it, such as Bert Jansch (included on his first, eponymous album in 1965, renamed as "Angie" - the album cover credits Graham[3][4]), John Renbourn, Lillebjrn Nilsen, Paul Simon (on the Simon & Garfunkel album Sounds of Silence[5]), and Harry Sacksioni (on his Optima Forma - Live album). The song is in the key of A minor (often used with a capo at the second fret) and is notable for its trademark descending bassline. However, the original recording by Davy Graham is in the key of C minor with a capo at the third fret.


Parts of the tune were sampled for the Chumbawamba track "Jacob's Ladder" from their album Readymades and the anti-war single "Jacob's Ladder (Not In My Name)".[6] Paul Simon, in his version, quotes another song from Sounds of Silence, "We've Got a Groovy Thing Goin'," and, further, another song from the same album, "Somewhere They Can't Find Me," opens with the guitar riff from "Anji".


Angie Swan is the sort of guitarist that gets you on your feet, swooning over the ripping solos which leave you wanting more. Hailing from Milwaukee and growing in a household surrounded by music, Angie attended the prestigious Berklee School of Music during the early 2000s and honed her craft by heading off to Los Angeles to kickstart her career in music.


Hmmm, up and coming artists? Well, I could definitely say some more recent artists and bands such as Little Dragon have gotten me way more interested in programming and production. As well as playing guitar, I like to experiment with drum programming and sampling. Much of this can and will be heard on my EP which will hopefully be released early 2019.


Too many to count, seriously. I have some funny ones though. I do remember having that experienced of being chased by fans while on the road with Fifth Harmony. Their fans (aka the Harmonizers) are definitely super fans. They would literally follow us to hotels or wait for us as we arrived at airports. They were definitely fanning on the band by association haha. I thought this stuff only happened on TV. Was this what I was like with New Kid on the block in the 80s?!?!


Is a multi-instrumentalist born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. After attending Milwaukee High School of the Arts, Angie went on to study at the world renowned Berklee College of Music in Boston. When she arrived at Berklee, the music industry was in full disruption - she auditioned for school on cassette, recorded in school on mini-disc and by the time she left everything was digital. The learning curve was steep, requiring Angie to be fast and flexible. While attending college, Angie toured the U.K. with a Brooklyn based band, The Femme Nameless, opening for Femi Kuti at the Barbican Centre in London. After leaving Berklee, Angie fast-tracked it to Los Angeles, where she has played guitar for artists such as Will.i.am, Nicole Scherzinger, Boney James, Stevie Wonder, Alana Grace, and WAX.


Angie auditioned for and was invited to join the Cirque du Soleil production of Amaluna, touring throughout the United States and Canada for three years. In 2017, Angie toured Asia with pop sensation girl-group Fifth Harmony and Argentina/Brazil with five-time Grammy Award-winning CeeLo Green. Angie has held the position as lead guitarist for David Byrne's "American Utopia" She participated in the 2018 tour and 2019-current Broadway run. The show was also filmed by world renowned director Spike Lee.

Jen: I met him in like 1997, 1998 we started going out. He was in a band, 50 Million, and I was in Static Faction and I was running a warehouse space with a bunch of my friends and they would always come and try to get on the shows. They were excellent and eventually they were on all the shows. We did our first Shellshag tape in 1998 and handed them out to like 10 of our friends.


Angie Boylan: I was drawn to drums as a child. As my parents recall, I was constantly tapping. I always had a beat in my head and always loved music. My brother had an acoustic guitar that he bought at a garage sale. I used to play around with that because there was no drum kit. But after years of begging and convincing, that finally changed.


Angie Boylan: Whatever requires the least amount of heavy lifting if possible. But I play a Gretch Catalina Club Mod. I got it because I found a good deal and I love how the bass drum sounds. Besides that, one rack, one crash, ride, high hat, floor tom, snare. Maybe the occasional cowbell or tamborine. Ya know, the basics.


A Sherman Park native, Swan attended Milwaukee High School of the Arts and Berklee College of Music, where some of her classmates included Esperanza Spalding, Annie Clark (St. Vincent) and Eric Andre.


Since moving back to Milwaukee in late 2015, Swan has accompanied the New Age Narcissism collective and was in the house band for the 'Wonder Uncovered' show at Turner Hall Ballroom in April, among other gigs in and out of town.


I recently sat down with Swan to discuss her Milwaukee upbringing, her college days, hanging out with Courtney Love, auditioning for Prince, traveling with Cirque du Soleil, getting stranded in India, wearing a Cheesehead in enemy territory, and more.


My father is a guitar player and a bass player. My mother has always been a lover of music. Both of my parents have influenced me in different ways. My mother showed me a video of me playing ukulele when I was three years old. I took my first guitar lesson when I was about 11-years-old down in Bay View at a place called Crown Music. I took private lessons every Saturday with a guy named Norm Kaminski, who just passed away. I was happy to be in town to pay my respects.


My mother would play a lot of Tracy Chapman, Robert Cray, Stevie Ray Vaughn. The 80s hair band videos on MTV, I thought those were so cool and I wanted to do that. Jennifer Batten in the Michael Jackson video, I thought she was so cool.


In middle school, it was Nirvana and Stone Temple Pilots. I really liked rock at the time, even Candlebox. I remember the older kids were listening to Candlebox at the guitar camp at UW-Green Bay and I thought it was so cool, I think because I like the E minor chord.

Once I got to Boston the industry started changing. My audition was on a cassette tape and when I was in college we were recording on mini-disc players. By the time I got out it was all digital, iTunes had just started. So there was a big shift, everything just started moving very fast between those years.


At Berklee, I think two or three years into me being there they started a laptop program where they required that everyone have a laptop. They put it in the tuition and would give you a laptop with music programs on it because they kind of knew that everything was shifting to digital.


I was a huge Prince fan growing up as a kid. I was always infatuated with him. My mother has videos of me singing his songs. In LA you're surrounded by those kinds of people, that kind of energy. So it's like six degrees of separation. And I knew that Prince scouted people.
