MEGHAN LEHMAN is a singer-songwriter living on the coast of California with her husband and two daughters, Iris and Sadie. Her songs are steeped in the complexity of motherhood, big feelings, and the quiet magic of everyday life. Influenced by the likes of Joni Mitchell and Gillian Welch, Meghan’s music holds the ache and beauty of feeling deeply in a world that often degrades sensitivity. As a mother, Meghan continues to fight for her right to create—to claim time, space, and voice in a world that often forgets artists who are also caregivers. She feels deeply passionate about women’s and mothers’ voices being heard—in art, in public, and at the kitchen table.
