U.S. Girls is the creative moniker of American-Canadian musician and producer Meghan Remy. Formed in 2007, the experimental pop project began as Remy's lo-fi solo endeavor, but it has since evolved into a collaborative platform, showcasing a fusion of genres spanning from psychedelia, soul, and electronic to experimental rock. The Philadelphia-born artist started recording music in her home using a simple setup with a reel-to-reel tape recorder, which set the groundwork for U.S. Girls' distinctive aesthetic. Her music is known for its candid and often politically charged lyricism wrapped in the engaging textures of her avant-pop soundscapes.

Over the years, Remy has sharpened her vision for U.S. Girls, enlisting the help of additional musicians and producers to expand the project's sonic horizons. With releases such as "Heavy Light" (2020), she has deepened her exploration of concepts like the collective human experience and the personal as political. Her discography reveals a penchant for reflecting on societal issues through personal narratives, all while maintaining an accessible pop sensibility. Tracks like "4 American Dollars," "Overtime," and "Bless This Mess" showcase her ability to juxtapose upbeat rhythms with thought-provoking themes. U.S. Girls has become recognized for its energetic live performances and Remy's charismatic stage presence, further cementing its status as a dynamic and compelling act within the indie music landscape.
