Meagan Tubb & Shady People pay homage to music of a bygone era with a séance of classic rock, blues, soul, Americana, and funk written from the perspective of inanimate objects of nature, life experiences, and more recently Meagan’s journey into motherhood. In the past 15 years she and her bandmates have managed to win a battle of the bands competition, open for Willie Nelson (twice), get 2 guitar sponsorships from both Dean and Luna Guitars, tour extensively across the U.S. and Europe, and her song, "Let Me Believe" won an Independent Music Award for “Best Song” in the Blues category and was a finalist in the John Lennon Songwriting Competition.  Her album released in 2011 titled “Cast Your Shadow” received positive accolades in The Austin Chronicle, Vintage Guitar Magazine, Austin Music and Entertainment magazine, Lonestar Music Magazine, and Pure Southern Rock Magazine.  Since becoming a mom, Meagan has delved into songwriting performing in the Dripping Springs Songwriters Festival three times as well as writing music for children.  Meagan and her bandmates released their new album “Signs and Wonders” in 2020 and they released a music video for her song “Rainbow Child” off the album in 2021 which has received regular airplay on KUT’s “Lone Star State of Mind” with Loris Lowe. The band also played the Wildflower Music Festival in 2022 as well as Lewisville Western Days in 2023.  When she is not onstage, Meagan is busy being a wife and mother, crocheting things for her girls, running, cooking, rapping about motherhood, learning home studio recording, and talking in silly accents.  For more information please visit- www.meagantubb.com 

Somewhere up there your favorite long-gone artist is creating music the likes of which our mortal ears cannot comprehend. Meagan Tubb & Shady People pay homage to these souls of a bygone era with a séance of classic rock, blues, soul, Americana, and funk written from the perspective of inanimate objects of nature, their own experiences, and creatures apart from themselves.  Their Feb 2011 release “Cast Your Shadow” produced by Stephen Doster has received such accolades as:

“Meagan Tubb plays slide guitar for the first time on her new record Cast Your Shadow. So I’m pretty sure that’s her wailing all over the place on album opener “Rock & Roll Seance,” a hot bruiser of blues rock that immediately lets the listener know what Tubb and her Shady People are packing. Meagan’s voice is even more powerful than her group’s athletic, vaguely Allman Brothers-esque twin guitar attack. Tubb’s command of her sultry, emphatic pipes are the spice that earns the “seance” claim.” – Jack Frink; Austin Music + Entertainment

"This Austinite mixes a few wordy, folky tunes with plenty of Southern Rock, which she belts clear and strong-never caterwauling. Tubb also plays mean electric slide and engages in some nice harmony lines with Jason Nunnenkamp's guitar and lap steel. It's a testament to their playing, the producer's restraint, or both that he (excellent guitarist Stephen Doster) didn't join in"- Dan Forte, Vintage Guitar Magazine, Oct 2011 issue.

“Meagan Tubb didn't choose the title Cast Your Shadow casually. She went about creating a well-mapped plan to cut her notch in Austin's blues belt. For that, she gets full props; this is unabashed Southern rock with bluesy Texas underpinnings protruding proudly ("Damn Good Man," "Sweet Dream," "First Day of School"). Tubb flaunts her stance with tough vocals, mean guitar, and funky backup from her backing trio of Shady People”- Margaret Moser; Austin Chronicle

“Clearly, Meagan Tubb isn’t lacking in the chops, pipes, or math department, as she demonstrates on her new release, “Cast Your Shadow”.  Tubb not only plays guitar like Susan Tedeschi and sings like a, well, ballsier Sheryl Crow, she also manages to inject words like “rhombus” in her songs without coming across as a Southern Schoolhouse Rocker.”- Gleason Booth; Lone Star Music Magazine  

"Texas has been the home to many excellent artists over the years and Meagan Tubb is another one of the dusty roads artist. Traveling down the path of the legends before her Meagan and her band Shady People light a fire under rock n´ roll and then throw it at you, setting the world on fire."..."But Meagan and the Shady People are not just leaning on their talent, they are wrapping it up and throwing it at you and proving song after song that they have what it takes to create some of the hottest music sounds in the industry today. Their down home rockin´ style floats into the musical avenues of the dusty roads and the big city with equal ease. Scorching guitar leads, smoking slide work, hard working rhythm section and you got one of the few bands putting it down with an original sound that never breaks new ground but never treads ground you are familiar with, mashing it up into a Beautiful Noise."
