Hailing from the picturesque Church Stretton in Shropshire, Meg Chandler is an artist making cutting edge indie pop music that contrasts her sleepy hometown while still maintaining the warm tones and nostalgic sentiments of her rural upbringing. Having been involved in the sonic arts for as long as she can remember, it was only in the last two years that she unearthed her passion for songwriting and embarked on a journey that would see her flourish as a solo artist.

Using every spare moment at her disposal to work on her artistic development while taking influence from the likes of Holly Humberstone, Orla Gartland, Maggie Rogers and Maisie Peters, she’s already making waves in the UK music scene. Linking up with Manchester production duo SOAP, she’s worked on her upcoming six-track EP set to drop in 2023.
