Megan Bee

Singer-songwriter Megan Bee crafts evocative folk-Americana music with a sense of place. Her lyrics, woven with an unquenchable wanderlust and a deep love for the land, reflect her experiences as an environmental educator and seasoned vagabond. Based in the rolling hills of Athens, Ohio, her sound is influenced by the collision of modern songwriting and Appalachian folk. In October 2025, she will release her much-anticipated fifth album, Fiction. Produced by Eddie Ashworth and featuring a cast of accomplished regional musicians, the album showcases Bee’s lyrical depth and vocals with sheer expressive closeness. It follows her 2022 release Cottonwood which was called "as real as it gets – a raw and real telling of engaging, relatable stories." It was listed in the best of 2022 by Americana UK and No Depression Magazine and received acclaim from American Songwriter and IAMA. She got her start in a desert wilderness around a campfire, where she picked up her first guitar and found her voice. Over the past decade, she has toured relentlessly by minivan, connecting with audiences through personal stories, road tales, nature facts, and light-hearted humor. In 2021 she founded Words In The Hills LLC, a writing retreat in Southeast Ohio that welcomes creative writers of all genres to gather in a summer camp setting to take workshops, connect with other writers, and be inspired by the natural beauty of the region. "No one has a greater sense of place than Bee...14 superb vignettes sung in an unforgettable quiver of a voice." No Depression “Good imagery & metaphors married smartly to contemplative songs laid out in an inspired storytelling manner…Not a bad song here.” Americana Highways
