Meg Elsier is one of Rock Oracle’s favorite Nashville artists. Our Editor-In-Chief, Jason Shrum, has written a couple of pieces about Meg and her band. Jason had a chance to chat with Elsier and her bass player, Jashaun Smith atop The Bobby Hotel before a show curated by WNXP and became an even bigger fan. Meg’s music is both soothing and jagged in the best ways. Her sound tends to ebb and flow like the tides and takes the listener on an joltingly emotional exploration. We are here now to share Meg’s newest project. This from her management:

Happy Elke Day!

As I stood outside The Blue Room, I felt my body battling both the 25-degree weather and the sheer excitement of the show that I was going to see. Tonight, attached to Jack White’s Third Man Records, the shivering crowd was going to be let in to Elke’s record release party. Elke was debuting her new project Divine Urge. It is her sophomore record. The show was being sponsored by Nashville’s public radio station WNXP and the former “Record of the Month” artist, Meg Elsier, was slated to be the opener. This was going to be a beautiful culmination of talent, music and like-minded folks gathered to share in the mystical power that live music holds over us.

Meg Elsier Raises the Roof

I brought my niece, Becca, as my plus one guest and didn’t know what to expect when encountering this rising star. Meg Elsier is just 30 years old- as is my niece- and she is quickly rising up the ladder of stardom in the industry. Nashville Scene magazine just awarded her the Best Indie/Rock Debut Album by its writers a few days ago. Meg debuted her record, Spittake, in June. The album deserves any accolades that it gets. I had been listening to it on my playlist for about a month before I got the news that I would have a face to face with this Berklee School of Music prodigy.
