      Meghann Wright: A Jane of Many Art-Forms

      June 12, 2016

      |

      Alexis Chateau

       A woman of many talents, Meghann Wright has dabbled in virtually every area of the

      arts. As a young girl, Meghann started out with classical instruments like piano and the

      violin. She then fell in love with the saxophone, which became her main instrument for

      roughly a decade.

       

      Surprisingly though, music was never Meghann’s true focus in the beginning. She

      originally spent most of her energies on visual arts; including theatre, drawing, and

      video production. However, at the end of high school and going into college, the

      independent music scene grabbed her attention.

       

      “I wanted to start playing in bands with my friends,” Meghann remembers. “Mostly I

      was just playing bass and guitar… and then I went through a couple different bands, and

      then I found myself actually wanting to write songs myself.”

       

      The unique sound Meghann wanted to craft for her own music didn’t fit in with any of

      the other music projects she was working on, so she decided to make music on her own,

      and has been doing it ever since.

       

      In spite of her ties to Hawaii and New York, Meghann’s eclectic love for music took on a

      lot of inspirations and turned it into her own southern sound. “I really appreciate music

      from that area,” she says of the south. “A lot of people don’t know this, but people in

      Hawaii listen to a lot of country music… and I grew up listening to all kinds of

      songwriters as well.”

       

      Some of the music she remembers being exposed to include David Bowie, Prince, and

      Nirvana. However, of all the artists Meghann admires, Dolly Parton tops the list. “I

      admire her so much as a person, a performer, and a songwriter,” Meghann gushes. “I

      actually have this secret hope that she would cover my song ‘Can’t Carry Water’. I would

      definitely love the opportunity to work with her.”

       

      Meghann also greatly admires her band-mates, who take the time out of playing in other

      groups, to tour with her around America. Her bassist, Eva Lawitts plays in three other

      bands – Caretaker, Sister Helen, and Vagabond. And both her guitarist and drummer,

      Sonny Ratcliff and Andrew Nesbitt, play together in a New York based indie band called

      Morning Sea.

       

      Meghann’s support of fellow musicians doesn’t stop at shoot-outs to band-mates

      though. In 2012, she started the City and the Heart project to help other artists to

      navigate their way around the New York music scene. She also helped female musicians

      to record demos, so they can reach a wider audience.

      Meghann then turned the community of female artists she had built into a unanimous

      feminist cause, releasing a record together, which was produced by Will Hensley.

      Hensley is well-known for working with musicians like Coldplay, John Mayer, The Fray,

      Shakira, and MUTEMATH.

       

      The proceeds from selling the album then went to Safe Horizon, an organization for

      helping domestic abuse victims. In fact, Meghann has always been drawn to the

      opportunity to create change. This is not just with regards to women’s rights, but with

      regards to politics, race relations, and other burning issues.

       

      Meghann, who is half Irish and half Mexican, grew up as a minority in Hawaii. “When

      you’re a little kid and you’re growing up very different from all the other little kids,

      things tend to be a little challenging.” Nevertheless, this helped shape Meghann’s

      outlook on what it means for minorities on the mainland who face that challenge every

      day.

       

      An outspoken woman, Meghann shares, “I definitely understand what everyone is going

      through and I find any kind of bigotry and prejudice to be reprehensible.”

      A musician on a mission to change the world, Meghann definitely does far more than

      just pay lip service, and is well on her way to creating a wake of change wherever she

      goes.
