Bruno Major

Britain’s Bruno Major splices classic singer/songwriter confessionals with sleek modern electronic production, girding the entire enterprise with hints of soul. After building an audience in the mid-2010s with a song-a-month series, he earned international attention with his debut album and its 2020 follow-up, To Let a Good Thing Die.
Based in Camden, London, Major was trained as a classical guitarist and released a live EP — appropriately called Live EP — in 2014, but he first received attention in 2016 when he set out to release a new song every month for a full year, a project that would extend into 2017 and culminate in the arrival of the full-length A Song for Every Moon. He accompanied this steady stream of digital singles with regular live appearances in London, sometimes opening for Lianne La Havas. By 2018, Major had widened his touring circle to include U.S. appearances (including the Bonnaroo Festival) and a tour of Asia. Throughout 2019 and early 2020, he issued several singles in advance of his second album, To Let a Good Thing Die, which arrive in June of that year. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
