NEW GIGS ADDED.NEW SONGS COMING SOON!!

About Me

We are the band Major Major. We hail from Liverpool and play an eclectic and alternative style of indie rock. Each song has a pastiche of our different musical tastes from Blues to Jazz to Disco to Flamenco to Drum and Bass and Hip Hop. Our exciting and energetic sound comes from an amalgamation of melodic, harmonious and lively vocals, dirty psychotic guitar and a grooving dance rhythm section all preparing the canvas for intelligent lyrics that tell a tale or two skilfully layered on top.“I was right. I think. To be honest I wasn’t given much time to think. The music hit me from the moment I pressed that button. Punchy, hypnotic disco beats and funky bass lines run around your head as the guitars and vocals smash through it. Major Major have written quite a musical feast!”If you would like to book us for a gig, review our music or one of our gigs or get in touch with us for any reason please do not hesitate to contact us via our
