    MEGG joins Pop Fuss!

    LA’s South Bay born & raised alternative artist, MEGG, blends her love for pop music with her punk rock roots to create a fearless sound for the tomboys, loudmouths, romantics, and all the misfits in-between. As one of the first five vocalists to graduate from USC’s Popular Music Performance Program in the Thornton School of Music, MEGG has shared the stage with many legends, has performed the National Anthem at Dodger games, and you may also recognize her from her memorable appearance on NBC’s The Voice. A signed songwriter with Reel Muzik Werks Publishing, MEGG's voice blends the fiery energy of Hayley Williams and the raw edge of Joan Jett, all wrapped in a nostalgic, early-2000s vibe. She dropped seven singles in 2024, with her latest banger, "The End," debuting last week. We talk about it all, including her upcoming gigs performing at this year's Warped Tour! Be sure to follow MEGG on all of her socials @MeggMusic and check out her website MeggMusic.com   Follow Pop Fuss on Instagram @PopFussPod for all of today's best emerging artists!

Her 4-song EP is surely just a taste of what's to come! We nerd out on 2000's emo pop, her choice to move to LA, and who else we'd like to have on our podcasts! (Yes, she also has a podcast!) We also get a sneak peak of her yet to be released next song!   Be sure to follow her on her socials @AbbyKenna and stream her music everywhere!   As mentioned, Abby also hosts her own podcast through @OnesToWatch called "Chef's Choice," a tastemaking talk show introducing listeners to their new favorite artists through a three course meal of tunes.
