Love is the only gold - Tennyson

About Me

Originally from Melbourne, Megan Vale headed up a jazz quartet in her home town then spread her wings and leapt into the unknown to discover some of the world, do some writing and make her mark with her own songs.Travelling to and writing in New York and London I have been fortunate enough to meet some wonderful people.I’m stubborn and determined, and I laugh a little too loudly. I’m very private but love talking to people and hearing their stories. Music is soothing, inspirational, fun and sometimes silly and pure escapism and it's just as well that it is, it helps to illuminate the human condition.

Be Good To Your Heart

Be good to your heart, it's the only one you have - it's what makes you Unique. Others may wish to sweep it away, capture it, try and seduce it, promise it the earth.  They may want a piece of it...
