Megan Mullins Joins "She Wolf" for Saturday Night Live
Since I can't get enough of Kristen Wiig's hilarity, I always make a point to record Saturday Night Live each weekend. This past Saturday (Oct. 17) was no exception, and I was especially looking forward to seeing the musical performance by singer-songwriter, Shakira. As I was watching her interesting "She Wolf" number, I was most intrigued by a familiar face singing backup and playing fiddle. "That's Megan Mullins," I said, surprised to see her.
An extraordinary musician, Mullins began her musical journey when she was just over a year old and now plays a variety of instruments, including fiddle, viola, mandolin and accordion, to name a few. Her award-winning talents have landed her a record deal, and just this year, she released single, "Long Past Gone." But what I find most intriguing about her talent is her ability to adapt to the different styles of music she is playing. One minute, she is joining Alabama's Randy Owen on CMT's Studio 330 Sessions, and the next, she's singing backup and rocking out to pop icon Shakira on Saturday Night Live. And just look who she gets to stand next to at the closing of the show -- of course, Kristin Wiig.

Megan keeps getting all these gigs touring, except the one she really deserves… headlining her own show!
