“South Bay-based alternative-pop artist, MEGG has returned with her explosive new single, “Hitting Nicotine” today. The new track, which marks her first release of 2022, explores the addictive feeling of being stuck in a toxic relationship. Complete with blunt, vulnerable lyrics, gritty vocals and punchy guitar, “Hitting Nicotine” is the type of song that’ll make you want to scream along at the top of your lungs. The energetic music video, which can be seen now below, serves as the song’s perfect companion.”

Tell me about your most memorable shows, if you haven’t played live what is your vision for a live show?
OOO, I’d have to say my most memorable shows are opening for The Used and Hot Water Music at Muzink, singing the national anthem at The Dodgers Stadium and playing a sold out show opening for Tomorrow’s Bad Seeds at Saint Rocke. Those shows were sick.
