The last twelve months have witnessed a significant change of gears for Angie Hart.
After a relatively quietly decade based in Los Angeles, Angie (yes, she of Frente fame, member of Splendid, guest of Holidays on Ice) returned to her hometown of Melbourne at the end of 2005 to begin work in earnest on her first solo longplayer, ‘Grounded Bird’.
Produced by Justyn Pilbrow, ‘Grounded Bird’ exceeded expectations in its breadth of musical scope and ambition. Rather than re-tread her musical steps, Angie sought pastures new, writing with a swag of very highly regarded collaborators (Ben Lee, Craig Ross, Dean Manning and Dan Luscombe amongst others) and tackling issues of struggle, change and transformation within the challenging confines of the pop song.
