Megan Bee

Megan Bee writes with an unquenchable wanderlust and a deep love for the land. Her 2022 album "Cottonwood" has been called "as real as it gets – a raw and real telling of engaging, relatable stories." It was listed in the best of 2022 by Americana UK and No Depression Magazine and received mentions from American Songwriter and IAMA.

She bases in the rolling hills of Athens, Ohio and draws influence from the collision of Appalachian folk and modern songwriting. Her music is a blend of distinctly homespun vocals, acoustic simplicity, yearning soulfulness, and winsome storytelling. Her background as an environmental educator and traveling farmhand once took her into a desert wilderness where she found her voice around a campfire. Her live shows are an intimate sharing of personal experiences, observations, stories from the road, nature facts, and light-hearted humor.

Over the past ten years she has released four full length albums and toured relentlessly. In 2021 she founded Words In The Hills LLC, a writing retreat in Southeast Ohio that welcomes creative writers of all genres to gather in a summer camp setting to take workshops, connect with other writers, and be inspired by the natural beauty of the region.
