Megan writes insightful, powerfully delivered songs about her experiences- real and imagined, the experiences of others, and the serendipitous nature and universality of everything under the sun.

Hi there Megan Melara first of all we'd like to say thanks for being our myspace pal. We wanted to make sure you knew the reason incase we suddenly vanish off of your friends list. The movement we've started for indie artists has grown significantly and consumes all of our time these days. We seldom sign into our myspace account and this is making several people believe that we are ignoring them. We are not ignoring anyone, we wanted everyone to know that. What we're doing has become so busy we just don't have the time for myspace any longer, so in all honesty we are probably going to just close our myspace account.
Many people wanted to use us in the future so if you were one of those people make sure you bookmark the link below so that in the event that we do close our myspace account you won't lose contact with us. I wish you the best of luck in your music career. Thanks again for being our myspace pal.
We have also built a pretty big music community which you are welcome to join if you want to meet new artists like yourself!
If you are in town Wed April 16th we are going to be playing at the Stubbs! If you are not doing anything we would love to have you come hang out with us. You can buy tix at http://stubbs. frontgatetickets. com
I can't believe you wrote a song about me, girl I love you to... As friends though, don't worry you'll find someone else, much shorter, smaller, and half the personality, but hey love the one you're with.
So strange I had a dream i saw you playing at Starbucks and thought to look you up on here! I am totally obsessed with Back Home and I've been listening to your music ALL day at work, so amazing I'm in love!!! Life is going great, living in Dallas and working...just life...how are things with you? Austin i see??! Do you ever get up here at all?
