\n\tMcMahon explains in a release that \u201cUntangling\u201d was a difficult track to complete. The song remained unfinished on her phone since the beginning stages of creating Light, Dark, Light Again.<\/em> \u201cIt was written about someone who is deeply entwined in my life,\u201d McMahon said, \u201cso I never felt like either the song or the untangling itself was entirely finished.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe deeply personal song features McMahon struggling with the prospect that she hurt someone because she was too \u201cslow at healing.\u201d But facing those feelings, McMahon sings over a sturdy bassline and gritty guitar that she is \u201cuntangling\u201d them from her center and calling the situation \u201ca joint misadventure.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe song was recorded at longtime collaborator\u00a0Alex O\u2019Gorman\u2019s\u00a0studio in suburban Melbourne, Australia between stops on her recent\u00a0Making It Through\u00a0tour \u2014 and is the only song on\u00a0Light Sides<\/em>\u00a0that was finished with her much-loved live band:\u00a0Lachlan O\u2019Kane\u00a0(drums\/percussion),\u00a0Jess Ellwood\u00a0(guitar),\u00a0Stella Farnan\u00a0(keys\/synth) and\u00a0O\u2019Gorman\u00a0(bass).\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI was surrounded by trees and my friends and I\u2019m so grateful to them for their musical powers,\u201d\u00a0McMahon added.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cUntangling\u201d follows the release of another track from the EP, \u201cJust Like North.\u201d Light Sides<\/em>\u2019 tracklist will include the two released songs alongside originals \u201cBeginner,\u201d \u201cInterstate\u201d and \u201cTake Up Space.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMcMahon has just returned to the United States for a string of full-band Midwest and East Coast tour dates, recently making stops in Chicago and Detroit. She arrives on the heels of a packed performance at Glastonbury, multiple sold-out shows at Melbourne\u2019s Forum Theatre and the Sydney Opera House, and an appearance with long-time supporter Fred Again.. on stage in front of 15,000 fans in Australia.\u00a0<\/p>\n
