Megan’s newest release, “New Eyes” is out now. Listen to “New Eyes”
“[“Gimme’s”] insightful subject matter contrasts with a strikingly upbeat pop rhythm and a funky bass hook. Davies’ strong vocals carry the song, giving “Gimme” its more serious edge, while brilliantly underscoring its own message, demonstrating the ways we mask our issues under a guise of happiness and perceived perfection — or in this case, a catchy tune.”- Billboard
“She is walking proof that clever decision-making can enable songwriters to retain full artistic control and support themselves full-time without label backing.” – Music Radar
