“Byron is definitely a music genius and understands the importance of the synergy between classical music and the digital space the industry is following.” – B Sharp Entertainment 
 
Byron Major has achieved quite a lot for a 24 year old - he’s performed his original song ‘South Africa’ at Nelson Mandela’s Boston birthday celebration in 2013, shared a stage with Pavarotti for his farewell tour in South Africa as part of the Drakensberg Boys Choir, made it to the Top 24 of South African Idols at the age of 17, and sang alongside Grammy Award-winning songwriter Paula Cole at a songwriting showcase while attending the prestigious, Berklee College of Music in America. His 2016 single ‘May Flower’ caught the attention of 21 radio stations across the UK and was produced by multi-platinum selling producer Andy Whitmore (Lemar, Atomic Kitten & Eternal) in the Londoner’s Greystoke Studios. While studying a Masters in Music and BCom in Financial Sciences con-currently in 2016, Byron Major’s original track “Delicious” charted for 10-weeks on college radio in South Africa. 

In 2017, Matchbox Music PR is proud to present Pop-artist, Byron Major’s latest single, “Midnight Daydream.” World-renowned DJ/Producer Mikey Gallagher has remixed the track with an inspired disco beat, Beatlesque piano arrangement and soulful R&B vocals, which are sure to get the club pumping and dance floor jiving.

Putting Singer-Songwriter Byron Major’s music into a box is not going to work. While his style is certainly influenced by his early classical music training, Byron takes on elements from Motown to 21st century electronica and even traditional fused South African sounds. His musical influences derive from artists such as Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder and Prince but his philosophy of musical variety is one that rejects categorizations. “My dream is for all of music to live under one umbrella, in one home. To me, genres in music is like racism in society – not applicable”, he explains. He likes to describe his own sound as ‘Soultronic’.

Byron Major’s song “Midnight Daydream” speaks to the questions we all face regarding the afterlife, the blur between dreams and reality, and the connections we as humans have with loved ones who have passed.
