today i put out two outtakes from my last album “Rock Bottomless Mimosas.” one is an alternative take of Mourning Dove and the other is a song called “Humor As Violence.” It took me awhile to put out HaV; as I grew away from the person who wrote it, it felt more like an old diary entry than it did my song to share. But @joeymacmahan did such good work on it that it felt selfish to keep!! Joey also produced the Mourning Dove alt take, which was one of the first songs produced for RBM while we were still figuring out the sound of the album. Anyways! mixed wonderfully by @danieljbermudez ambient noises by @kevin_pontrelli and drums of course by the one and only @zevshirtpants

WHAT A NIGHT! and what a BAND! Beyond grateful for everyone on that stage and everyone out in the audience. This album was written to try and communicate something to those closest to me which I couldn’t quite seem to find the words for outside of music… and so to get to present it fully with all my friends and family behind me and out there is just life affirming !! Thank you to everyone who came and shared the night with me ! and a special thank you to @benhgphoto for these wonderful pictures!

NEW SONG OUT NOW: “In The Family” - will likely be the last single before releasing my album in July. It was written when I just had one niece, soon I will be the uncle to 3 beautiful nieces&nephew. This is a song dedicated to all of them, I hope with time they will find the lessons as valuable as they’ve been for me the many many many times i’ve learned them (and am sure to continue to). Special thanks to: @joeymacmahan for such sensitive producing and engineering @connorstylevance for arranging and playing the most gorgeous of string parts @kevin_pontrelli for the most entrancing of ambient textures and pedal steel @omarakrouche for a perfect mix @guy_pidgeotto for another spectacular master this was a hard one to get on playlists so if you are able to help me by sharing and adding it to your personal playlists it would go a long way ❤️ love, “uncle” max p.s. shelby took this photo
