Indie Pop from Meg Smith

New York City-based Meg Smith is the a pop sensation on the rise. Recent winner of the inaugural BMI Charlie Feldman Award for emerging talent and clocking up millions of streams of her music online, she’s been going from strength-to-strength with each new move – and she’s only just getting started.

With her honest and confessional style of lyricism, she writes songs about being a twenty-something year old living in New York City, playing her guitar Dolly and crying on the subway. Her authentic writing shines through in her songs, building a sense of relatability that’s resonated with listeners all around the world.

Originally hailing from Los Angeles, she’s been writing and performing her songs since high school, constantly developing her artistic vision which has resulted in her memorable sound today. Since making her introduction in 2020 with her debut single “Cool 4 U”, she’s dropped a string of well-received releases along the way and now brings us her brand new single titled “You Make Bad Things Not Suck <3”.

With her typical style of rhythmic indie pop, on her new single she lays down an infectiously catchy anthem. Full of hook-driven leads, “You Make Bad Things Not Suck <3” sees a young artist at the top of her game, justifying the hype around her so far.

Of the new release, she says the single is, “a song about having a ginormous, overwhelming crush. It’s about enjoying every second with someone, no matter the circumstances; being stuck in traffic while having the time of your life.” Also penned as a love letter to her roots in LA, she romanticises about the elements of LA life she once disliked, looking back nostalgically on memories of scorching heat, traffic and the people who make the city what it is.
