Megan Laurie

She's Australian • She Plays Guitar
She Sings Country

But it's not the Australian accent that you notice, charming though it is. It's the way Megan Laurie delivers a song - rich, soulful, and from the heart. Her music is fresh and inviting...with a unique depth and style all her own.

The Australian industry undoubtedly recognizes Megan's promising talent, crowning her three consecutive Champion of Champions titles: Victoria, South Australian and Queensland. Megan is the only person ever to win the trifecta!

In 2004, Megan moved to the United States to learn the ins and outs of the music business at South Plains College in Levelland, Texas, where some of American's most famous country music artists jump-started their careers: Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks, Heath Wright of Ricochet, LeAnn Womack, Matt Jenkins, and Australia's own Jedd Hughes, to name a few.

"South Plains College gave me the opportunity to study under the guidance of some of the most respected tutors in the music industry." South Plains College faculty awarded Megan Outstanding Female Songwriter of the Year 03-04 and 04-05, Female Country/Swing Vocalist of the Year 03-04 and 04-05, Female Bluegrass Vocalist of the year 04-05, Female Country/Swing Instrumentalist of the Year 04-05 and Female Entertainer of the Year 04-05. Megan has also been a member of the "Thursday Nite Live" television program aired live each month, giving Megan valuable exposure throughout the Hockley County area. "It is easy to forget that Megan Laurie is just in her twenties. Her musical maturity and positive approach are beyond her years," says Scott Faris, Director of Guitar Studies at South Plains College.
