Melbourne-based alt-electronic pop artist Meghna is set to release her debut EP A World Full of Idiots on Friday 22 August, delivering six tracks that explore rage in its many forms.
A Tamil-Bengali Australian artist who has lived and performed in Berlin, Meghna’s career to date is as varied as her sound. A former stand-up comedian who has shared the stage with Matt Okine, Sammy J, Nath Valvo and Aunty Donna, she is also a nationwide model search winner for ICON Management and a global face of DB Cosmetics. Now she’s emerging as one of the most distinct voices in Australia’s music scene, recently highlighted by Rolling Stone, The Guardian, Triple J, Acclaim Mag, VICE and Live Nation’s Ones to Watch.
Produced by SB90, the EP blends Berlin-club grit, hip-hop swagger and subtle Indian influences into glitchy trap beats, hyperpop accents and Meghna’s smoky alto vocals. She describes it as “an exploration of rage in different forms/situations—but mainly about getting angry because of external things; wars, people cutting you off on the road, creepy men, elitists looking away from poverty, people underestimating you and disrespecting you, and dealing with the aftermath of it all. It’s about feeling angry all the time, sometimes reacting disproportionately, and ultimately realising that even if other people make you angry, you’re still responsible for your own emotions, actions and behaviour.”
Meghna’s previous single ‘Road Rage’ earned airplay on Triple J’s Home & Hosed, playlist adds on FBi and Edge Radio, a first play on Triple J Unearthed and a spot on Rage as a Wild One. Her live résumé includes the FIFA Women’s World Cup Fan Festival, Always Live’s End Of The Line, SOUNDBOX, and Berlin’s Luftschloss at Tempelhofer Feld, sharing stages with Mia Wray, Tex Perkins and Alex Lahey.
With A World Full of Idiots, Meghna channels personal and political frustrations into dark, danceable anthems that invite both movement and reflection.

We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability.
