PRETTY BOY FLOYD's LP "Leather Boyz With Electric Toys" sold more than half a million copies, and the band has existed in various forms ever since.ĭuring the pop music shift of the '90s, Majors worked in A&R at Sony Records, producing some of their biggest jazz and pop artists, including Dave Koz, YOUNG DUBLINERS and Keiko Matsui. Majors packed all that in his suitcase bound for L.A., and by the mid-'80s was signed to MCA with the glam rock band he formed, PRETTY BOY FLOYD.
He later took in glam and rock shows, Broadway plays, and the cutting-edge art scene. Majors grew up in New York City, attending all-ages shows at CBGBs and collecting firsthand the energy from epic punks like the RAMONES, DEAD BOYS and NEW YORK DOLLS. With decades of diverse experience, Majors is going "back to my roots." "I write and record music to please myself these days," said Majors, who released "Kristy Majors And The Thrill Kills" independently and going back to basics with fan-focused promotion: big shows in intimate venues, crazy live videos, and music that transcends generations. "Broken Lip" is available for free download at this location. The first single, "Broken Lip", is the perfect example of this synergy, with its blistering speed, classic punk guitar sound, lyrics punched with attitude and two-minute run time. With roots that feed from the East Coast '70s punk scene to the West Coast '80s metal scene, KRISTY MAJORS AND THE THRILL KILLS are delivering from the sweet spot that exists in between. KRISTY MAJORS AND THE THRILL KILLS released its debut self-titled album on June 17. You can now listen to the chat in the YouTube clip below.
On June 23, Brian Rademacher of RockEyez conducted an interview with Kristy Majors of PRETTY BOY FLOYD and the new Southern California-based punk/rock band KRISTY MAJORS AND THE THRILL KILLS.
