Jonathan May

Los Angeles-born independent artist, singer, songwriter, and producer Jonathan May blends atmospheric R&B, ambitious pop, and hip-hop into a distinctive, genre-defying sound. Entirely self-taught, May began his musical journey at 15, developing an artistic identity defined by creative independence, versatility, and emotionally driven production. Following a series of self-produced releases and collaborations with Grammy-winning artist KayCyy, May released his 14-track debut album, Lonely Avenue, in November 2024. His breakthrough single, “Blue Seats (812),” surpassed one million streams, establishing a significant milestone in his growing independent career. In October 2026, May returned with his sophomore album, Everything Comes Back Around, an ambitious 14-track exploration of time, love, ambition, and personal growth. Entirely produced by May, the project showcases his evolving musical range and features collaborations with KayCyy, Elon, and Kalii. As the founder of MayTech Records, May continues to build his career on artistic ownership and creative freedom. With a growing catalog, international listenership, and an uncompromising approach to his craft, May is establishing himself as a multifaceted independent artist with a vision extending far beyond conventional genre boundaries.
