MAV V LIVE IN CHICAGO

Like his more renowned stylistic genre counterparts, Nick Colionne and Grammy winner Norman Brown, Max V has high-energy improvisational chops to spare, yet grounds his vibe perfectly in the two elements (groove and melody) which guarantee that listeners wont want to let go.
Its always a challenge for an indie artist new to the smooth/urban jazz realm to break through and compete with the long established A-listers, but genre- fans who love that George Benson/Wes Montgomery style of guitarisma will be hooked instantly once they give Max V a shot.
-Jonathan Widran, Jazziz Magazine

Max has captured audiences worldwide including those of The Blue Note Hawaii, Buddy Guys in Chicago and Bakers Keyboard Lounge in Detroit.
One might ask Why the transition from Blues to Contemporary Jazz?. Max claims that Blues was what I once knew, but once I was exposed to different music, I felt jazz was where I could mix a variety of genres. I connect mostly with rhythm & blues, soul and jazz.
Next to You has received a tremendous amount of radio play around the world with his single Check it Out topping multiple charts.

His new CD is a compilation of original songs with a hint of soul featuring world-renowned artists Ronnie Foster, Gail Jhonson, Marqueal Jordan, Lin Rountree, and others. His guitar riffs are like no other and his smooth guitar speaks to you through his melodies.
