Meagen Matthew (16) released the pop/ rock album, Open Eyes, recently and is excited about the journey she is about to embark on musically.
“I have been singing for as long as I can remember and was part of the choir in Amanzimtoti Primary School. The first instrument I learned to play was the keyboard when I was 12 and then the ukulele afterwards,” said Meagen.
When she turned 13, her brother, Jordan, suggested that she play the guitar as well. “He kind of pestered me until I picked up the guitar and started to learn.”
Jordan also played a big part in the process of putting the album together and contributed vocals. Meagen said having Jordan’s support has made all the difference through the making of the album, and he will be joining her on stage when performing live.
She dreams of one day working with international artists Avril Lavigne and Paramore.
When she is not busy with music, Meagen concentrates on her studies and is currently busy pursuing a general education diploma through home-schooling. In her spare time she likes crocheting, painting, drawing, and
creating special effects.
She thanked VCA Records and her fans and followers on social media for the support. Meagen is available on Facebook and Instagram as Matthew.Megs as well as on Tiktok.
Open Eyes is available on CD as well as on streaming platforms.
