About

Meredith Edgar is trying to break your heart.

Born and based in San Francisco, Edgar writes songs that wrap elements of modern Americana in smoky tendrils of 1930s jazz chanteuse darkness. Her voice is supple and expressive, rendering delicate details and subtle shifts of light as masterfully as bold swaths of color. Her lyrics make the personal poetic, and vice versa.

Together, it’s a siren song that lures the listener from the sunny shallows into deeper waters, glimmering and mysterious, mesmerizing and chill-inducing…oh, and fair warning: it’s likely to make you cry.

Performing regularly at venues around the Bay Area, Meredith has become a respected artist in the local singer-songwriter scene, sharing stages with the likes of Mark Eitzel, Andres Miguel-Cervantes, Noelle and The Deserters, Dougie Poole, Paula Frazer & Tarnation, and more.

Based in San Francisco, CA, United States · active since 1997.

"Meredith sounds like she stepped out of the starring singer role in a David Lynch movie." - Cindy Emch (Secret Emchy Society)
