Krystal Meyers (born July 31, 1988) is an American Christian rock musician. She is the daughter of Rick Meyers, creator of the popular Bible study software e-Sword. She started writing songs by age 10 and was playing the acoustic guitar by 13, later releasing her self titled first album at age 16 in 2005. Her second album, Dying for a Heart, was released on September 19th, 2006. Krystal's musical style has led many music critics to describe her as "The Christian Avril Lavigne" but she denied that by calling herself the real rock chick^{[citation needed]} . Her music combines hard-edged rock with smooth acoustic melodies. Krystal has gathered acclaim for her ability to move from quiet soft-rock songs to fast-paced rock and roll anthems without a hitch. Aside from positive Christian messages, her songs mainly focus on problems facing teens, such as peer pressure and pre-marital sex. She wrote 'Anticonformity' with the help of a friend while at a Christian summer camp before entering high school^[1], and later published it on her self-titled album.

In early June of 2008, the music video for "Make Some Noise", the first single from her third album, hit the internet. It shows a different direction in music, incorperating dance into her music. Her third album, also called "Make Some Noise" is expected to be released on September 16, 2008.^[2]
