Fresh off the most surreal summer of her career, LA-bred alternative punk artist MEGG caps her Vans Warped Tour run with the release of the music video for her latest single, “IDC.”

Filmed on a shoestring budget and an even tighter schedule, the video channels the rebellious energy of the track into a whirlwind of nostalgia and chaos.

“We pulled this music video off with like zero time or budget and the result is a fast-paced, nostalgic, chaotic ride,” MEGG shares. “It was such a team effort led by Rio Noir—he’s an insane talent. It really is a blast to watch and I think you can feel how much fun we had making it.”

Co-written by Brian WightSophie Shredz, and MEGG, and produced by Wight and Rob Nagelhout“IDC” is a snarling, anthemic statement piece—equal parts Joan Jett swagger and early Green Day grit. Mixed by Nagelhout and mastered by Grammy-winner John Greenham (Billie Eilish, FINNEAS), the single’s chorus all but dares you not to scream along.

The video’s release arrives just as MEGG wraps an unforgettable Warped Tour experience.

“Being on stage with my best friends at Warped Tour this year was the most insane experience of my life,” MEGG reflects. “My band and I grew up attending this festival when we were kids… to play our music in front of thousands of people as probably the smallest act on the bill… I’m still speechless. Thank you Kevin Lyman and Warped Tour! Grateful is an understatement.”

A graduate of USC’s inaugural Popular Music Performance Program, MEGG has built her reputation on genre-bending songwriting, powerhouse vocals, and a relentless DIY spirit. She’s shared the stage with KISSThe Used, and other rock heavyweights, while headlining iconic Los Angeles venues like Saint Rocke and performing the National Anthem for the Dodgers, LA Galaxy, and LA Sparks.

Now splitting her time between Nashville and her California roots, MEGG is riding the momentum of “IDC” toward her upcoming EP, due this fall. With sand still in her Vans and a middle finger still raised, she’s primed to keep delivering the raw, unfiltered anthems her fans have come to love.
