Biography

In her relatively short lifetime, Megan Mullins has mastered seven instruments and genres, won numerous musician championships, and worked as a model and actress. The Indiana native began taking violin lessons at the age of 18 months, and won the Indiana State Fair Showmanship Award at the State Fiddle Championship at age three. Mullins comes from a family of professional musicians who toured the country in a van together playing shows through much of her childhood. She began performing with her brother Marcus, and at age 14, they played the Grand Ole Opry. As if she weren't busy enough, Mullins began taking dance, gymnastics, theater, and swimming classes. Since graduating high school at the age of 15, Mullins has worked at perfecting her fiddle playing and singing talent, playing numerous gigs throughout the United States and abroad. At the age of 18, she released her first single on Broken Bow Records, called "Ain't What It Used to Be." The single was met with immediate and overwhelming public response, and her debut album was slated for release in August 2006. ~ Megan Frye, All Music Guide

Megan Mullins (born November 24, 1987, in Fort Wayne, Indiana) is an American country music artist signed to the independent Broken Bow Records label.

Her debut album was originally slated for release in 2006 but was never released.[1]

Biography

Mullins was born on November 24, 1987, in Fort Wayne, Indiana.[2] She began to learn several instruments at an early age, and by age three, she had won the Indiana State Fair Showmanship award at the State Fiddle Championship.[2] Many of her family members are also professional musicians, most notably her brother Marcus, with whom she performed on the Grand Ole Opry at age fourteen.[2]

By 2006, she was signed to Broken Bow Records, an independent record label. Her first single, titled "Ain't What It Used to Be" (also recorded by Billy Currington on his debut album) was issued early that year, reaching a peak of #32 on the country music charts. A second single, "Cryin' Days," failed to chart at all, and Mullins announced in October 2007 that she would be returning to the studio for further work on the album.[1]

Although the album has not been released, Mullins has remained on Broken Bow's roster. In 2008, Mullins recorded a duet with former Alabama lead singer Randy Owen (who is also signed to Broken Bow), for his solo debut album One on One. Mullins also plays fiddle in Owen's road band.[3] In April 2009, she switched to Stoney Creek, a sister label also started by the founder of Broken Bow. Her first release for Stoney Creek, "Long Past Gone", made its chart debut in May 2009, and peaked at #48 later in the year.
