Poetic, weighted lyrics paint alluring, sometimes dark stories against multi-layered guitars and keyboards, a flirty bass, and invitingly dance-able drums that result in songs that haunt, soar and envelop the audience in intimate soundscapes. Frontman JP (vox, samples, guitars), along with bandmates David Leatherwood (bass, lead guitars), Joan Chew (bass), and Konrad Meissner (drums), are often backed by a host of talented guest musicians--like Fountains of Wayne guitarist Jody Porter, who added an extra touch of psychedelia to two mesmerizing tracks; "Crystals" and "Days Turn To Nights" on their 2016 E.P. "MY Body Your Mind." Their live shows are marked by JP’s intense, emotion driven performance. 

herMajesty released their version of Patti Smith’s “Dancing Barefoot” on 4/14/16.


"You may have heard ambient rock group herMajesty's on KEXP in Seattle and WFUV in NYC. If not, the NYC-based band will hook you with their haunting lyrics and vocals, as well as pulsating guitar riffs and keyboard lines."
Indie Shuffle

"herMajesty immerses themselves into each song fully, which in turn creates a dynamic sound highlighted by sizzling guitar work and J.P’s distinct vocals. Add in the perfectly timed keyboards, bass and percussion and it becomes a monster sound which can fill any room, small or large."
