Ever since the release of her debut single ’Fur Coat Queen’ in 2019, Megan’s highly personal songwriting has offered a powerful exploration of sexuality and gender conventions. The track is deeply autobiographical, drawing on her lived experience of coming out to friends and family and hitting back at societal prejudices and ingrained biases around bisexuality. Now, ’Deadly Is The Woman’ expands on Megan’s unapologetic vision, incorporating vintage-inspired sounds from blues, rock and jazz with sharp lyricism that reflects her own experiences of navigating the social and political spectrums in which she currently finds herself. With the kind of gritty, alluring vocal ability that recalls icons like Stevie Nicks and Alannah Myles, themes of gender, sexuality and mental health underpin the album, creating a powerful sonic bridge between her 70s-influenced sound and contemporary views on feminism and the LGBTQ+ community.
