Megan Conner

“‘As simple as it sounds, we all must try to be the best person we can: by making the best choices, by making the most of the talents we've been given.’” A quote by Mary Lou Retton is what Megan Conner lives her life by. Born in North Carolina but raised in Texas - is what gave Megan her country roots.“I remember in middle school - I became obsessed with riding horses. I did the whole - boots, big belt buckle, spurs and country music thing. During this time I really began to appreciate country music for what it truly is. Instead of choosing to pursue pop or rock - to me, country music rings with honesty and real life.”“My parents divorced when I was 3, so I grew up very fast. By the age of 7 I knew what I believed in and what I wanted in my life. I knew that I wanted to affect people’s lives in a positive way.” And that is exactly what Megan has been doing. After graduating from Baylor University with a degree in Theater performance, Megan moved to New York City to pursue her dreams. After quickly realizing what a demanding city New York was, she found much happiness in the fitness industry. Megan began training and teaching all over the city, eventually managed a gym in midtown and created a triathlon club. She is a nationally recognized instructor that has been featured in Elle magazine, Alloy.com and Private Clubs magazine. “Fitness is an industry that is completely positive - it’s all about bettering yourself.” This is what attracted Megan to fitness, and where she found her home in New York City. She had no idea that teaching classes would eventually help her music career...“I never dreamed I would move to New York City to sing country music.” After only a few months in the city, Megan was discovered by songwriter and producer Paul Vance. Vance is noted for writing “Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini” and “Catch a Falling Star.” She was recorded and produced by Vance in the city as a country artist. This is when Megan rediscovered her love for country music. After sharing her music in her fitness classes, creating a special style of teaching, and building a strong fan base...the next natural step was to move to Nashville.A fresh face in the Nashville scene, Megan is now working with prominent singer/songwriters and producers to craft her career. Some of the people she currently collaborates with are: Don Goodman, TJ Seals, Rich Alves, Jon E. Conley, among many others that she is so very blessed with. Her personal philosophy remains unchanged. Embedded from the roots of country’s soul - it continues to grow and blossom touching the lives of others through her positive spirit and her music. This spirit is reflected in her belief that, “No matter if there are 5,000 people or 5 people in the room that I’m performing in - if I connect or touch just 1 person then I consider myself a success.”Stay tuned for new songs, new pictures, and much more!
