Angie K Releases Personal, Reflective New Self-Titled EP
Rising singer-songwriter Angie K has released her self-titled EP.
Angie K is a co-writer on all six tracks of the independent release, which was produced by songwriter/producer Stephony Smith. The EP features two unreleased tracks “Games” and “I’m Going Under,” as well as recent releases “Stay,” “Death of Me” and “Red Dirt on Mars.”
“This is definitely one of the toughest projects I’ve ever made,” shares Angie K. “Not so much in the studio with the band but writing these songs and deciding on what made the cut. Purposely choosing the most vulnerable ones…that took a lot of emotional work. Putting something so personal out requires letting go of the way people might react to it, as an artist that’s hard to do.
“‘Red Dirt’ and ‘Death of Me’ are songs about deep grief,” she continues. “‘While ‘Games’ and ‘I’m Going Under’ have repressed anger and frustration coursing through them. ‘Stay’ and ‘Golden’ are both about me finding my way out of those darker feelings. This EP is a snapshot of my life when I wrote these songs. I’m so proud of it and excited for folks to go on this emotional journey.”
The release of the EP comes on the heels of a major personal life moment for the out, country artist as well, her engagement to longtime love Marissa Boucher. She is set to return to the Opry stage on Feb. 15 to celebrate the new EP.
