"Tonjes’s lyrics are crafted with a poetic sensibility, her melodies are addictive, and her vocal delivery is stunning: like golden ribbons of honey swirled into strong black tea, simultaneously smoky and sweet"(seejeffread.blogspot.com)
"Singer/songwriter Meghan Tonjes has a great voice – it has a rich, smoky quality at times, but also has impressive range. Her voice is clearly the best part of her debut CD, Be in Want"(Independentclauses.com)
Recently featured on PerezHilton.com, BMI affiliated singer-songwriter Meghan Tonjes is a new artist on the rise. Armed with only her voice and guitar, she has managed to create stripped, acoustic versions of hundreds of popular radio hits (everything from Britney Spears to Rihanna).
With her newly released LP, Be In Want, Meghan fuses her addictive melodies and honest words with a stirring and soulful sound reminiscent of Sarah Mclachlan, Jason Mraz and Adele. Be In Want is a self-released, eco-friendly album that recounts the frustration and heartbreak of almost-loves.
In addition to her personal channel and web series, Meghan also heads a Youtube collaboration channel called Project Lifesize. Described as an "average-sized collaboration", the channel aims to start a dialogue about issues of body image, self esteem and acceptance.

Hi Meghan! I'm writing you from Valence (Spain). Only I want to say you that I'm fan of your music since I found your Britney cover "Beak the ice". I like your voice and I love your music a lot.
Meghan, ever since I heard you sing the Amy Macdonald cover of "This Is The Life" on youtube, I have fallen absolutely fallen head-over-heels IN LOVE with your music and voice. You have so much talent, and although I'm only but fifteen years old, I, too am an aspiring musician! And you inspire me so much!
OOOOOOOOOOOOH my god I love you! Not just for your voice, but for the positive message you try and put out there. You're an inspiration for bigger girls everywhere :]
Heyyyy can you do me the biggest favor? It'll literally only take a sec, I'm doing a contest for my friend and I just need you to click this link. It just takes you to itunes, I promise it's not spam. THANK YOU!!! xoxo Katie
