Anyone who knows Megan knows that no matter what she is doing at any given moment, she
is also singing. Some family members say that she was even singing before she
could talk. Now, whether she's studying, playing soccer or just hanging out with
her friends, she is always lightly singing. After doing this for so long, people
around her hardly notice. But when she turns up the volume it's impossible not
to be blown away by the emotion, power and maturity of her voice.
As if singing was not enough to satisfy her music making desires, Megan has also
become skilled at playing the guitar and piano. She is self taught on these
instruments and yet was playing for audiences within a few months of starting.
As soon as she started playing these instruments, she also started writing
music. The depth of her lyrics and the quality of her songwriting made local
professional musicians take notice. With the support of family, friends and
music industry professionals, Megan has rapidly become a highly respected
singer/songwriter. Her influences include Taylor Swift, Demi Lovato, Sara Bareilles, and
Colbie Callait. She especially admires the songwriting ability of some of these
artists.
Megan started working with South Jersey voice
coach and producer Steve Childs in 2006. She began recording in 2009 and around
this time Steve introduced her to Apollyon Records where she was quickly signed
to a recording contract. Her debut EP, Big Puzzled World, showcases her
skills as a vocalist and songwriter. Of the seven songs on the cd, Megan wrote
two by herself (Thinking Of You and Invisible In Your Eyes). The other songs
were co-written with singer/songwriter Cody Smith.
