   About Megan Melara
To: You From: Me What: What do you want to know? When: When you ask me, I will tell you. Where: Everywhere. How: Cheap and easy, just how I like my men. 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. Credits: Megan is currently recording her 2nd full length studio album with Merel Bregante at Cribworks Digital Audio in Austin, TX. The album, scheduled for release in Spring 2008, will feature Merel Bregante, Alex Adinolfi, Riley Osbourn, Al Garth, Jon McEuen, Kullen Fuchs, Woody Russell and Tom Benton. She has shared the stage with many diverse performers in Austin and beyond, including David Newbould, Will Taylor and Strings Attached, Patrice Pike, Woody Russell, Jane Bond, Lisa Richards, Matt the Electrician, Troy Dillinger, Charter Bulldogs, Molly Venter, Chelle Murrey, and Matt Williams to name a few. Megan recently embarked on a six-week West Coast Tour in the summer of 2007, playing such legendary venues as the Make-Out Room in San Francisco, Hotel Café in Los Angeles opening for Jesca Hoop, Lestat’s in San Diego, among other venues in California, Oregon, Washington, Montana, Colorado and all the way to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Venues and events she has played in Austin: Alligator Grill, Austin Fine Arts Festival, Austin Java, Austin Zoo, Baxter’s, Cactus Café, Central Market, Easy Rhino, Fado, Flipnotics, Gat5 Art Studio (East Austin Studio Tour), Guero’s, Hill’s Café, Lavaca Street Bar, Lone Star Vegetarian Chili Cook-off, Maria’s Taco Xpress, Momo’s, Mother Egan’s, Mozart’s, Ross’ Old Austin Café, Ruta Maya, Saxon Pub, Seattle’s Best, Sky Lounge, Southwestern University, Sullivan’s, Stubbs, Ventana del Soul, Y Bar & Grill, Texas Soberfest 2003 and 2004, and Threadgills. She has also performed in College Station, several times in New York City at the Orange Bear Bar, Cupping Room Café, and The Back Fence, and she plays regularly in Dallas at Opening Bell as well as her annual Day-After-Christmas show at the legendary Poor David’s Pub in Dallas. Her first cd, "Dawn" and her 2007 5-song EP "It’s Love" are available for sale at Waterloo Records, at cdbaby.com, on her website, and at her shows. She is currently in the studio with renowned engineer and drummer Merel Bregante working on her 2nd album, scheduled for release in 2008.

Hi Megan,

Thanks so much for your nice comment about our songs. Ya know I did listen to your stuff too and really liked it. I got the folk and acoustic, but was really hoping to hear some of your "death metal" too.

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.

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.
