Today 5D rock goddess Meg Myers releases a true labor of love, TZIA, her much anticipated third studio album (Sumerian). The energy on TZIA is palpable. You can taste Meg's furious feminist energy when she often flaunts her multi-hyphenate genre-spanning style as she oscillates between themes of empowerment and self-doubt. Listen to the full album HERE.
About the album, Meg commented, “TZIA is the manifestation of a 4-year-long journey of healing, existential awakening, transformation, and rebirth. I am so grateful to be able to share this light and the insights I have gained with you through this exploration and expression of my deepest and most raw and honest feelings that have emerged from this period of self-reflection.”
To celebrate the release of this amazing body of work, Meg highlights “A NEW SOCIETY” as essential listening, a perfect segway into the album as a whole. In her eyes, “A New Society is a protest song about the breakdown in humanity and collapsing of old systems as we shift into a new era and build structures based upon truth and love instead of manipulation and control. I feel strongly that what we write about has the ability to manifest into our physical reality, and so my intention with this song is for it to be the conscious planting of a seed that continues to grow for generations to come.” Watch the music video for “A New Society” HERE.
With furious feminist energy and pointed lyricism, Meg Myers has emerged as rock’s most dynamic, diverse, and disruptive outlier on her own terms. Full album tracklisting below.

ABOUT MEG MYERS:
Meg Myers chooses to live. Now, this choice has required time and transformation as well as unshackling herself from the expectations of a society too narcissistic to give a shit, trusting her gut independent of external opinions, listening to her intuition, and writing the kind of music she always wanted to. As such, her third full-length album, TZIA [Sumerian Records], soundtracks a moment of awakening emotionally, sexually, and spiritually in bursts of raw power, electronic fits, alternative experimentation, and jarring pop. Meg has dedicated the better part of the last decade to breaking free. She has piled up hundreds of millions of streams across albums such as Sorry [2015] and Take Me To The Disco [2018] highlighted by the likes of “Desire,” “Sorry,” “Numb,” and “Make A Shadow.” Along the way, she has canvassed the country alongside the Pixies, Alt-J, Alanis Morissette, My Chemical Romance, Royal Blood, Smashing Pumpkins, and Jane’s Addiction in addition to igniting Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! and gracing the bills of Coachella, Lollapalooza, and Governors Ball. Pre-Stranger Things, she breathed fire into Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill” with a stunning rendition initially introduced on NPR Tiny Desk. The cover made history by capturing #1 on the Billboard Alternative Chart 42 weeks after its release. She’s also earned the praise of Billboard, Cosmopolitan, GRAMMY.com, Nylon, Rolling Stone, and more. Beginning in 2019, she crafted the bulk of what would become TZIA at home in Los Angeles with just a piano, guitar, and ukulele before rounding out the process with collaborators such as Andy D. Park, Thomas Powers, and Mike Elizondo. Now, she kicks off this era with “ME” and more to come.
