Discrete moments in time and space inspire the gaze of JP, lead singer of the NYC indie rock band, herMajesty. “Crystals,” the band’s new single slated for release on July 30th, 2014, is a tender glance into the inner world of its central character. Its generous, passionate and magical spirit is conveyed through the imagery of the lyrics, seductive keyboard lines, lush orchestral arrangements and exotic male and female vocals. Complementing the hypnotic aesthetic of the song is the psychedelic guitar work of Jody Porter from Fountains of Wayne.
In the past, herMajesty appeared on FOX National TV, performed in front of a packed houses at some of New York City’s favorite stages (Mercury Lounge, Rockwood Music Hall, Arlene Grocery, etc.), shared the stage with national touring acts The B-52s, Tom Tom Club, Boxer Rebellion, Say Hi to Your Mom, and received airplay on KEXP, KTUH, WFUV, etc.
herMajesty consists of JP (vocals, rhythm guitars, programming), David Leatherwood (guitars, backup vocals), Joan Chew (bass, backup vocals), and Konrad Meissner (drums, percussion). Keyboards on “Crystals” were handled by Dayle Raymond Jellyman.
"herMajesty conjures mysterious layered sounds that bring to mind Chris Isaak at his best, especially in tracks like “Days Turn to Night”....David Bowie also comes to mind complete with poetic lyrics and an ability to create languid stylings with JP’s dreamy vocals." Read here
