Ontario native, Nashville-based singer-songwriter Meghan Patrick is as real as they come. She playfully blends her tough-as-nails exterior with a casual, cool narrative - showing the world that women can be sexy, strong, intimate, and gritty. Whether it’s composing skillfully crafted songwriting or tearing it up on tour - listeners are invited into her world and very quickly become lifelong fans. A back-to-back CCMA Female Artist of the Year whose accolades also include 19 CMAOntario Awards, she has proven that she has what it takes to create music that her fan base adores. With the release of her deeply personal project, Golden Child, she has reached a point where after 8 years in Nashville, she can peel back even more layers and be even more authentic.

The album touches on trauma in her past that Meghan is finally ready to release, discuss, and heal from through her music. “Of course, I’m chasing success in my career, but more and more I am chasing fulfillment and fulfillment doesn’t just come from making money and winning awards and having success,” Patrick explains. “I have had those things and it did not fulfill me in the way I thought it would.” She now coins the term, Big Sister Country as a way of sharing advice through her impactful lyrics.

A multi-faceted musician from a tender age, her background includes co-founding an all-girl band at age 13, studying opera and jazz, fronting a 10-piece funk act that once opened for Aretha Franklin, and touring extensively as part of a bluegrass group. She names John Prine, Neil Young, and Waylon Jennings as a few of her musical inspirations.

There has never been a plan B, determined to foster a creative career and now as this new era of her music is released, she continues to evolve. Golden Child is a testament to her newfound love for herself and the journey, therapy, and self-reflection it took to get to this place. “I made this record exactly how I wanted to, I told exactly the story I wanted to tell, I told the truth and when you tell the truth, you have nothing to worry about.” This clean slate musically and emotionally has allowed her to release the most impactful songs of her career.
