Introducing Meghan Downing!
We are so excited to announce this year’s LightHouse Gala Musical Guest Performer, Meghan Downing! Meghan is a visually impaired singer/songwriter with a soft and beautiful country-inspired musical style. Spending most summers as a child and young adult at a sleep-away camp, Meghan draws from her memories of singing and playing guitar around the campfire as an inspiration for her artistry and will surely bring the sounds of camp to our gala.
Meghan has been playing a variety of string instruments since the age of five. She was diagnosed with Stargardts Retinal Disease at nine years old, and with the ability to read sheet music becoming increasingly more difficult, Meghan learned to play music by ear. Originally from Santa Barbara, California, Meghan followed her dreams to Boston, Massachusetts to pursue her music career at Berklee School of Music.
Meghan’s first single, Any Luck, will be released tomorrow, July 7. We are so excited to hear her perform her new song live at our gala, An Enchanted Evening, next month. To listen to a sneak-peak of Any Luck, or to learn more about Meghan, you can visit her website, Meghan Downing Music. To purchase tickets to the LightHouse Gala on August 19, 2023, please visit our gala website.
Stay tuned for more from Meghan and details about An Enchanted Evening!
