About Me

..Megan Woodland Donley, singer and songwriter of Megan and The Wheelmen (previously known as both "Birds and Broken Radios" and "Visuddha") came from the woods somewhere a little over 24 years ago and has been singing ever since. She picked up an Alvarez guitar in 1998 and began searching for the songs within her soul.Andrew Evans Naylor is a theory man at heart and his true love is harmony. Andrew is an accomplished and eclectic musician - his instruments include the fretless and upright bass, piano, organ, guitar, and drums. He is also an instructor in theory and technique and is available to give private lessons for bass and guitar - just contact us at this myspace page if you're interested!Clem Foust has been playing the pedal steel for many moons and has performed with a wide range of musical groups since the 1970s. He is an intuitive and soulful musician. Clem's playing is both mesmerizing and haunting, partly due to the unique tuning he uses - a hybrid between the Country E9 tuning and the Jazzier C6.Drummer Todd Reid hails from North Carolina and has much experience playing his funky beats in bands all over the country. He has played with many performers, such as Barton Carroll in Seattle, Washington, and he currently plays with singer/songwriter A.D. Chandler of York, Pa. With his smooth, classy, down-to-earth style of percussion, he is in high demand as a drummer.Electric guitarist Jeff Hewitt joined the band in the Fall of 2008, bringing polychords, songwriting skills, wonderful guitar solos and an edgier sound for the band. Jeff has played in numerous bands around the York, Pa area including Wild Goose Chase and Mora Mora.Megan and The Wheelmen are currently playing shows in the York area and working on recording our first album at Studio Camp Betty in York, Pa with the help of Pete Richards...
