Meg Mac’s whirlwind career began back in 2014 when, aged 23, she’d been shot into the spotlight by winning triple j’s ‘Unearthed Artist of the Year’ title. Debut 2017 album Low Blows reached #2 on the ARIA Albums chart and, by the time of 2019 follow-up LP Hope, the singer had racked up a bunch of ARIA nominations, a track feature on HBO’s ‘Girls’ and a US tour supporting D’Angelo, which she still today describes as a “life highlight”.
2022 marked a mesmerising return to form for Mac who saw her third studio album Matter Of Time taking out the coveted #1 position on the national ARIA Albums Chart! Meg Mac’s catalogue of hits includes ‘Low Blows’, ‘Something Tells Me’, ‘Never Be’, ‘Give Me My Name Back’, ‘Letter’, ‘Only Love’ and the multi-million streamed debut track ‘Roll Up Your Sleeves’.
Mac’s live shows have been described as ‘A badass masterclass in flexing God-given talent. Meg is professionalism defined.’
Currently touring internationally to rave reviews, Smith is also pumping out hot collabs and new smash hits including, Sam Smith & Madonna ‘VULGAR’, Calvin Harris & Sam Smith ‘Desire’ (coming soon via Sony Music Australia, pre-save here) and ‘Man I Am’ from Barbie The Album (released Fri 21 Jul via Warner Music Australia, pre-order here).
