Dent May is an American singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist hailing from Jackson, Mississippi. Renowned for his distinctive blend of pop that incorporates elements of psychedelia, folk, and electronic music, May's career has evolved through a commitment to melody, lush arrangements, and an unabashed love for the grandiosity of pop music. With a flair for retro aesthetics and a keen sense of modern pop sensibilities, Dent May has carved out a niche that pays homage to the past while staying firmly planted in contemporary indie music.

After initially capturing attention with his ukulele-driven debut album "The Good Feeling Music of Dent May & His Magnificent Ukulele" in 2009, May went on to expand his instrumentation and stylistic range in subsequent releases. Notable songs like "Can't Keep Saying Goodbye" and "Across The Multiverse" showcase his ability to craft catchy, thoughtful tunes that are as heartfelt as they are whimsical. His evolution as an artist is evident in the more recent ventures like "Late Checkout," which continues to explore themes of love, yearning, and escapism against an ever-shifting tapestry of sunny melodies and sophisticated pop. Throughout his career, Dent May has remained a unique voice in the indie scene, one that invokes a blend of nostalgia and novelty with each whimsical release.
