Biography

I grew up in Roberta, Georgia (pop. 808)...

I'd have to say my biggest influence is my dad. He played guitar and sang for me ever since I was a baby. His music was the only thing I ever listened to as a kid.

And...Whoever bought me that Mariah Carey tape "Emotions" did me a huge favor... I would practice singing to her every day. I owe my lucky ear to my dad and that tape.

The first time I sang in public was at an all black Southern Baptist church on Christmas eve when I was 8. For some reason I decided to sing "White Christmas..." I just recently realized the humor in that -- but luckil... (+) expand

your music is really great. you are by far my favorite on 61.

I love your music so much -- I saw you in Minneapolis, but you have to come up to Winnipeg and play here.

Really enjoyed the new demo. I wish I could write INTERESTING music like yours. Even more than your great voice and melody choices, that's the best part about your songs.

Cool, that's a fun song, especially with the story behind it.

I love your music. I think that your voice is so unique and so beautiful. I actually saw these really hilarious interviews that you did. You should post them up I think people would really enjoy them.

Hi Meiko checked out all three tracks "Piano Song", "Reasons To Love You" and "How Lucky We Are". You have a powerful voice digging the background vocals in "Reasons To Love You". I host a podcast show on the internet titled Real As It Gets. Would love to have you on for an interview depending on how flexible you are. You can check out some of the interviews at www.drop.io/realasitgets. You can also email me at elijahrealasitgets@gmail.com for more information via time schedule and skype setup. Keep on writing great music. Much blessings and light.

Saw you at Room 5 last Monday, it wasn't supposed to be your show, but I'm definitely glad to see you performed. I loved hearing the stories behind your songs. The one where you said you slept with your friend who's a boy to piss his gf off was hilarious!
I think you should introduced Nash and England to thesixtyone so I can add them to my play list. :-D
Looking forward to more of your shows. :-)

Hey Meiko, was awesome meeting you at Zoey's tonight. You have a beautiful personality and it was fun hearing the stories behind the songs. I feel like I know you now; wanna go with you to Kauai and read the paper in the morning while you make the coffee. ;) I hope you know just how amazing your music is. Easily one of my favorite shows.

Stay in touch. I'd like to send you some of my dad's music that I think you'd really enjoy.
