bio:
Max grew up in western New York and started writing songs while making his living as a busker in Puerto Rico. He releases music both independently and through the Barcelona-based label Son Canciones. He's toured North America & Europe, sharing the stage with Cat Power, Justin Townes Earle, Lake Street Dive, The Weather Station and many others. He also tells stories and has been featured on The Moth and Stories From The Stage.
“Timeless and utterly current...as much Woody Guthrie as Chance the Rapper.”
“Man this is some gorgeous stuff. Conover is a hell of a fingerstyle guitarist and he has an arresting vocal style, with a ton of presence.”
“Springsteen-esque at points, yet soaked in an almost John Hughes sense of romanticism...These are songs with real heart and character, that demand repeated listens.”
“...Genuine and true and [hits] home in a way similar to other folk greats such as Iron and Wine.”
