Bio
After bursting onto the NYC music scene in 2015 with her debut EP ‘Piece by Piece’ and
a growing grassroots following, 24-year old Megan Talay has spent the last year amping
up her sound for a self-titled follow-up EP. Co-produced by Greg Mayo (Bernhoft, Delta
Rae) and Zach Jones (Sting, A Great Big World, Wakey!Wakey!), and mixed by Ducky
Carlisle (Demi Lovato, Susan Tedeschi, Rooney), the 5 song set will be released in the
Spring of 2017.
Having grown up in Westchester County, just North of NYC, Talay has been playing
iconic New York venues like The Bitter End and The Knitting Factory since she was 16.
In 2014 she graduated from The University of Miami’s Frost School of Music where she
studied Songwriting and Guitar.
Since returning to New York, Talay has become a sought-after session musician, lending
her skills on guitar, bass, and backing vocals to various NY-based acts including the all-
female Guns N’ Roses tribute, Guns N’ Hoses. Making use of this session work to nance
her own project, Talay plays regularly throughout NYC at venues such as The Studio at
Webster Hall and Rockwood Music Hall –as well as cities all along the East Coast from
Philly to Miami. She fronts a simple but formidable power trio and wins consistent praise
for her clever lyrics, exciting guitar work, and infectious onstage personality.
