Pugs! Soft furry little animals, I'm pretty much obsessed with documentaries: Dig!, When the levees broke, Plastic disaster, Jesus camp, Sicko, Outfoxed, Weapons of mass deception, The big one, Maxed out, In debt we trust, Who killed the electric car?, Paradise lost, Paradise lost 2, American movie, Overnight, Startup.com, Prescription for disaster, Farmingville, A Crude awakening, The devil and Mr. Johnston, The Bridge, Small town gay bar, Howard Zinn: You can't be neutral, The Ground truth, After Innocence, Supersize me, Grass.... Real stories are the most interesting. I love to get a glimpse inside other people's lives.

Books...I love the harry potter books! True crime books, Serial Killer books....nonfiction..sociology books. Can't say enough about reading...Wicked, Son of a Witch.................................I'm also in Carpentry school full-time which is awesome...so that's been challenging and inspiring...Just kidding!!! I dropped out to work on the new album full-time.
Deep breaths everyone!
Meagin Donovan's songs deliver a folk experience in a punk fusion vocal styling that is not only interesting but outrageously fantastic. Coupled with her acoustic rhythms, Meagin's songs will haunt you with a styling that is totally uninhibited and entertaining. The favorite on this six song ep is "Calling U Home". This song is beautifully done in all aspects of songwriting and performance. Other key tracks are "Didn't Mean To Die", "The Owner" and "Play". Each song on this ep has tremendous qualities in their own eclectic stylings. Leave your perceptions at the door and open your mind to a different kind of entertaining sounds that you will surely embrace. With great acoustic rhythms, passionate vocals and melodies that you will have trouble getting out of your head, you will experience a new dimension in music.
