Megan Arns is a percussionist, ethnomusicologist, and educator on the music faculty at the University of Missouri in Columbia, Missouri, and Interlochen Center for the Arts summer camp. She is an advocate for the creation of new music, and regularly performs with two contemporary chamber groups: the [Switch~ Ensemble] – an electroacoustic ensemble based out of New York, and DRAX – a saxophone and percussion duo in-residence at Mizzou.

Formed in 2014, DRAX is a faculty ensemble-in-residence at the University of Missouri School of Music with Leo Saguiguit (saxophone) and Megan Arns (percussion). Dedicated to performing and creating new repertoire for this unique combination of instruments, the duo made its international debut at the World Saxophone Congress in Strasbourg, France. DRAX has performed at the Mizzou International Composers Festival, conferences of the North American Saxophone Alliance, the Missouri Percussive Arts Society Day of Percussion, Odyssey Chamber Music Series of Columbia, Missouri Contemporary Ballet, and residencies at Virginia Tech University and Sam Houston State University. Upcoming performances include Colorado State University and the Percussive Arts Society International Convention, as well as the release of their debut album on Ravello Records in November 2022.
