EPISODE 57: MEG MYERS PT. 1: I AM NOT THE BODY

In this Episode Lol and Budgie get cozy with Meg Myers, to whom Budgie is Tickled Pink to introduce you – we are entranced, spellbound.

I am Not the Body.
Meg found ‘Running up That Hill’ after 2nd album tour burn-out 
had an Overwhelming realization – that the Universe had her back 
36 years surviving dissociation from her body 
the change is that the challenge is now happening for her, not to her
No more people pleasing – an Evolution into a Safer space
an epiphany of self-realization. 

One Universe of Expression.  
Shutting out the opinions and expectation of others 
Difficult, intense, magical time leading to greater wisdom
Removing the armour of invention 
Tiny deaths brought release and growth 

The Id not The Ego
Released from the toxicity and trauma of childhood
Meg finds new expression of self and spirit through music 
Resisting all outside intrusions to take time to Create a safe channel.

Open to Greater Wisdom
‘When there is no me, there is more authenticity.’
Meg’s process of Evolution? – Hacking the System!
a major perspective shift, an all-knowing Higher self 
Nothing to be done and Everything will be done. 
Hmmm…. Exactly!

ABOUT MEG MYERS
Meg Myers third full-length album, TZIA , soundtracks a moment of awakening emotionally, sexually, and spiritually in bursts of raw power, electronic fits, alternative experimentation, and jarring pop.

She has piled up hundreds of millions of streams across albums such as Sorry and Take Me To The Disco highlighted by the likes of “Desire,” “Sorry,” “Numb,” and “Make A Shadow.” Along the way, she has canvased the country alongside the Pixies, Alt-J, Alanis Morissette, My Chemical Romance, Royal Blood, Smashing Pumpkins, and Jane’s Addiction in addition to igniting Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! and gracing the bills of Coachella, Lollapalooza, and Governors Ball. Pre-Stranger Things, she breathed fire into Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill” with a stunning rendition initially introduced on NPR Tiny Desk. The cover made history by capturing #1 on the Billboard Alternative Chart 42 weeks after its release. She’s also earned the praise of Billboard, Cosmopolitan, GRAMMY.com, Nylon, Rolling Stone, and more. Beginning in 2019, she crafted the bulk of what would become TZIA at home in Los Angeles with just a piano, guitar, and ukulele before rounding out the process with collaborators such as Andy D. Park, Thomas Powers, and Mike Elizondo. Now, she kicks off this era with “ME” and more to come.
