Barron Machat Obituary

1987 - 2015
The Sun of his creators Lisa & Steven Machat, Barron's life was filled with music from his birth. He was able to carry on the family tradition that was created by his father Steven Machat and his grandfather, the late Martin Machat in the world wide music and entertainment business.

Barron's life was cut short in a fatal car accident, April 8, 2015 in Miami Florida.

Barron ran the Indie record label Hippos In Tanks and the Artist Management company of the same name with his father Steven Machat. The offices were located in LA, NY, London and Miami.

Under Barron's creative leadership, musical artists from around the globe were given the opportunity to have their visions and dreams released into the pop culture world. These artists are organic and created what they dreamt not what they were told to create.

Barron was born in New York, raised in LA and had the opportunity in his short life to travel the globe, discover and promote music for the world to see, hear and feel. At the time of his untimely death he was overseeing and finishing the creation of the next two Yung Lean Albums in Miami.

Barron is survived by his family, adoring father Steven Machat, loving mother Lisa Machat and loving sister Margaux Machat.

A celebration of his life will be held in Miami-LA-NY and London.

Barron left us way too soon and he will be forever in our hearts and deeply missed.
