M. Byrd

The German singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer M. Byrd maps out his own path through an ever-evolving web of alternative, indie, and pop accented by shoegaze and synth transmissions. These soundscapes match the warmth of his vocals as he taps into naked emotion and open-hearted honesty. This approach has earned praise from the likes of Ones To Watch, Atwood, and more. Becoming a dad and personal growth, he musically chronicles a season of profound change on his 2024 EP In Breech [Nettwerk].  Music drew M. Byrd into its magnetic pull during his childhood. He drummed away in front of the family television set at the age of three, picking up his old man’s guitar shortly thereafter. He wielded his chops at roots jams and wrote and recorded music of his own. His 2020 debut single “Mountain” eclipsed 10 million Spotify streams followed by “Morning Sun” with over 5 million Spotify streams. He continued to evolve on the Orion EP in 2021. He dropped his 2023 full-length debut, The Seed, to widespread praise from EUPHORIA. and 1883 Magazine. In its wake, he crafted what would become In Breech. Splitting time between Hamburg and Denmark, he explored different sounds and vibes as he penned tunes. Alongside co-producer John Joseph, he brought the EP to life. “I hope that people feel like these songs are a space they can come back to when they are going through a drastic change in life,” he leaves off.
