Major spent the first three months of 2019 in Los Angeles, CA working on material for To Let A Good Thing Die. During his time in LA, Major connected with songwriter/producer O’Connell after his sister, Billie Eilish, shared Major’s track, “Places We Won’t Walk,” off his debut album A Song For Every Moon. The two connected over their mutual love of lyrics and collaborated on numerous tracks on To Let A Good Thing Die, most notably “The Most Beautiful Thing.”

Speaking of the experience, Major explains, “I wrote ‘The Most Beautiful Thing’ with FINNEAS in his living room in LA. We sat and talked for a few hours about everything and nothing - writing the song took considerably less time than our conversation. The song’s big idea is one that has always fascinated me. The concept of a ‘soul mate’ has always seemed far-fetched, when that person could easily be born on the other side of the world or in a different time, and the chances of meeting them so slim. Is true love really circumstance and compatibility? ‘The Most Beautiful Thing’ is a love letter to the soul mate I’ve never met.”
On To Let A Good Thing Die, Major crafted a tapestry of stories interwoven with narratives of human relationships, love, heartbreak and existential musings. His songs speak to a collective experience yet resonate with listeners as if they were meant for them alone. As Major puts it, the songs are “classic tales for a modern age.”
