notes
Meghan Carr grew up in a home where music was a priority. She was exposed to all kinds of music and writing styles including that of Jude Cole, Tracy Chapman, Jewel, Paul Simon, Loudon Wainwright III, The Clancy Brothers, Peter Gabriel, Shawn Colvin, Billy Joel, Melissa Etheridge, and countless other fine song-crafters. Honing her guitar and vocal skills, Meghan performed occasionally with her parents (Ben & Maureen Carr) and contributed harmonies on her mom's "Stones Unturned" album in 2005. It seemed inevitable that she would eventually write and record her own CD, "Grounded". The CD's 10 originals take the listener through a gamut of emotions, without being cliche or trite. The ballad "Never Mine" may bring a sigh, but "Missing Sock" will balance it with a laugh. "Stand Up" is sure to evoke an emotional response, as will "What Good is This?". "Seize the Day" will give hope and "Awkward Silences" will never seem the same. Meghan Carr is off to a good start with this album; at least, she's "Grounded".

Grounded
author: MelanieI love this album!
Lightning Strikes Twice
author: BlingerTo have one talent in a household is one thing, but, two from one home? Like her mother, Meghan Carr really knows how to pull together a balanced, insightful, and toe-tapping album. The lyrics seem to convey a savvy beyond her years, and the heart behind those lyrics really grabs you from Track 1 and holds you til the end. While the album has a couple of fun songs, what I took away from it were songs like Only One and Never Mine that hit a resonant tone in my heart ...don't be surprised if the CD doesn't bring a tear down your cheek. I don't care who wants to borrow it, this is an album that's not leaving my house for a while - it's grounded.
