Born on April 9, among five siblings Maegan is second to the eldest of the legendary Freddie “ANAK” Aguilar, and the first to follow on the hills of her father’s musical legacy. Ever since she was a little girl, her parents Freddie and Josephine had an inkling she was going to be in show business one day. At the tender age of five, Maegan was enrolled in ballet. By seven she took organ and piano lessons under the Yamaha School of Music in Cubao. A year later Maegan went back to dancing but this time it was jazz dance classes at RAL’s Dance Studio on Annapolis in Greenhills, under the veteran dancer, Geleen Eugenio. All this training got her choreographing at school and neighborhood fiestas.

FATEFUL EVENTS
Then tragedy struck. As a frisky girl, Maegan was playing around with a Chinese Garter when her foot slipped, dislocating her leftt elbow. The doctors said she required six months of therapy, which she hated. and missed many a session. Realizing she had to do something, found her therapeutic solution in the form of drumsticks. With the radio as her guide and drumsticks in hand, Maegan followed to the beat of the music for hours on end in her father’s music room. This relentless therapy got her fully recovered in less than six months, and honed a newly discovered natural knack in drumming. In fact, she got so good at it that a year later, this cute 13-year old bravely entered the music scene as a drummer-percussionist in the rock band Crossroads, composed of seasoned musicians in their mid-twenties. She was their star.

BLESSINGS IN DISGUISE
All this late nights of club gigs started to show in her slipping grades, so her parents grounded her. Naturally, that move ended her career instantly. Devastated, Maegan wasn’t about to leave behind that center-stage high. With music now in her blood, Maegan picked up a guitar and turned to songwriting instead. Giving her 4 basic chords, Freddie left the rest up to his daughter. She picked up a few more chords on her own and filled an entire notebook with songs. By age 16, Maegan cut her first album, entitled, “Maegan Aguilar, Sige Lang Sige” under her father’s label, Aguilar Music productions (AMP), distributed nationwide in 1995 by Alpha Records which garnered the Best Alternative in the prestigious Awit Awards of the same year.

MOVING ON
Two years later, Maegan signed up with Mina Aragon as her Manager. Before anything would happen, Ms. Aragon passed away. Not wanting to leave such talent in a lurch, Aragon’s husband, the movie mogul, Vic Del Rosario, picked up Maegan contract and released her “Burst” album under Viva’s record label NEO Records.

AS A MOVIE STAR
A pretty and genuinely talented young girl with a famous family name was the formula for the making of a star. Vic Del Rosario saw this, and promptly signed up Maegan to a five-year movie contract. Just turning 18, she still needed parents’ consent. Her parents had Viva add a clause that guaranteed her clothes would stay on. After the success of her first movie, “Laging Naroon Ka”, the trend in local films turned to bold. And that marked the beginning of the end of Maegan’s film career. Vic Del Rosario honored the conditions of the contract but was unwilling to go against the trend, and that meant her career as an all-around Viva star went on the back burner. This time, Maegan hardly flinched. She had no desire to shed her clothes for millions of leery men. The only problem was NEO records was also under Del Rosario and that was frozen, too.

GOING PLACES
All these setbacks did not keep this girl down. Maegan took her music far and wide. Travelling to Europe, she developed a huge fan base in Frankfurt, Munich and Hamburg. With her repertoire of original and cover songs. Maegan has graced concert halls in Sweden, Denmark, and Paris. Played at a Folk & Blues concert in Belgium. Twice invited to guest in the Shirataka music festival in Yamagata, Japan. And as the drummer-vocalist to an all-female group called the FLOWERCHILD, with Rozy Torres on lead guitar and Annie Trillo on bass, both former members of the now defunct "Pretty in Pink" all female band. together they performed exclusively at Edge Bar in Central Hong Kong.
