Meredith Edgar

If you're looking for live music for your event, I can perform solo, or bring a band with me. You and I would discuss specifics of the event (age range of guests, length of performance, musical style preferences, etc) and I would draft a playlist of songs for you to review based on that conversation. Myself and my band (if desired) will perform anywhere between 30 minutes to 3 hours of songs for your event based on your needs. We can be background music or the main focus of the party, whatever you prefer.

Hi! I'm Meredith, a San Francisco-based vocalist, songwriter, and guitarist. I've been singing for my whole life, and performing music for audiences since middle school. My original music has been featured on video game and indie film soundtracks and trailers. I perform my original songs as well as covers and some jazz standards several times a month both solo and with other musicians; performing is my absolute favorite thing to do. I've performed at several Bay Area venues including The Make-Out Room, The Rite Spot, Amado's, Slate Bar, Zeitgeist, Salesforce Park, The Lost Church, The Back Room, The Uptown, Great American Music Hall, and the Ivy Room, to name a few.

My musical style generally sits within the Americana, folk, singer-songwriter, and jazz genres, but if there's a particular song you'd like to hear that you don't think fits into those categories, let me know and I might be able to figure out a version that we'll both be happy with (for example, I've performed covers of songs by Amy Winehouse, Alvvays, The Pixies, Jenny Lewis, Bruce Springsteen, and many more).

A few reviews from past gigs:

Ginger M.
I have booked Meredith Edgar numerous times for events and shows. As a person, she is wonderful to work with. She even showed up in The outfit for the Film & Music series I produced where the Film was "Breathless". This is not to say that costumes are part of what she usually does. I just very much appreciated that particular moment as one who has booked her trio many times in different locations because the music is so good. I highly recommend working with this artist.

Laura B.
Meredith is a gem. She’s an incredible vocalist and a talented performer with a varied repertoire. She is professional, personable and all around delightful.

Krissy H.
Meredith is massively talented. Her lyrics are powerful and her voice golden. There's no walking away when she is playing, you'll be glued. ❤️❤️

Maurice T.
This woman, Meredith Edgar, is the Beth Harmon of Bay Area folk music. Gorgeous, elegant, exquisite work. The highest quality art.

Technical requirements will vary based on event location, duration, weather, and how many musicians you'd like to play. Typically, we will at least need:
- Access to power
- Shelter from sun/rain (if outdoors)
- A relatively even surface to set up on (no steep inclines)
- If you are not providing a sound system (sound board/mixer and speakers), we can bring our own, but we will need to know in advance.
