Megan Lea is committed to staying true. Born in Selma, Alabama and raised on a rural route, the importance of family, work ethic, and plenty of room for imagination were planted from the get-go. After years of sharing her original music on festival stages, in dive bars, and living rooms throughout the Southeast, those roots have grown into a sound all her own. These days, Megan lives a multifaceted life in many different roles; including Mama, ICU RN, Aunt, wife, bandmate, writer, and solo performing artist. The common thread among all of these is a self-aware sincerity and a burning curiosity for life that won’t quit. 

Megan’s writing has been described as authentic, raw, soulful, and introspective, reminiscent of poetic storytellers like John Prine or Emmylou Harris. Her stage performances incorporate sincerity of connection with a raucous edge, especially when performing with her husband Brad, guitarist Andy Branton, and bassist Billy Rigdon as The Dirty Mirrors. Megan’s textured vocal style, reminiscent of a Car Wheels Lucinda Williams with the simplicity of a Nebraska Springsteen adds an authenticity that turns listeners into believers.

“Whether we connect on the road, in the backyard, on the creek, onstage, or online, I’m grateful to share my world with you.” -Megan Lea
