Meet Megan MCKenzie

Often compared to some of the iconic frontwomen of goth and alternative rock, Megan’s unique sound blends raw emotion with soaring melodies, creating an unforgettable experience for listeners. With every performance, she strives to create a safe space where survivors of hardship can come together, feel seen, and push forward—powerfully and unapologetically.

Known for her electrifying presence, deeply moving music, and soaring voice, Megan is In her 30s and feeling stronger and more creative than ever as she has fully embraced her journey as an artist, channeling her passion into songs that explore heartache, survival, and resilience.

Beyond her own music, Megan is a fierce advocate for female artists and self-expression, championing the voices of women in rock and fostering a supportive environment within Jacksonville’s local arts scene through the Sad Girl Happy Hour organization. Her fearlessness and candidness extend to every aspect of her work, from her music to her interactions with fans and fellow musicians. After receiving feedback that her recently recorded songs were “too big, too dramatic,” and “too epic,” Megan embraced the critique, standing by her bold, larger-than-life sound. For her, making music that pushes boundaries and challenges expectations is not just a choice—it’s a reflection of her strength and creative vision.
