Info zu Leave On A Light

Das dritte Album von Max McNown, „Leave On A Light“, offenbart einen außergewöhnlichen Künstler, dessen Durchbruch ihn noch näher an seine wahrhaftigsten Instinkte gebracht hat. Inmitten eines explosiven Aufstiegs, der seinen Status als einer der faszinierendsten Singer-Songwriter seiner Generation festigte, gelangte der aus Oregon stammende Musiker zu einer tieferen Überzeugung von der Kraft der Musik, das zu würdigen, was wirklich zählt – wie die Menschen und Werte, die seinem Leben Halt geben.

Entstanden in einem Jahr außergewöhnlicher Dynamik – darunter der Abschluss seiner ausverkauften, kontinentübergreifenden Headliner-Tour – zeigt „Leave On A Light“ McNown letztlich so geerdet wie nie zuvor in seiner künstlerischen Vision und ist der bislang umfassendste Ausdruck seiner einzigartigen Songwriting-Handschrift.

Das Album folgt auf „Wandering“ aus dem Jahr 2024 und „Night Diving (The Cost of Growing Up)“ aus dem Jahr 2025. McNown arbeitete erneut mit seinem langjährigen Partner und Produzenten Jamie Kenney zusammen und nahm das Album im Blackbird Studio in Nashville auf.

Für dieses Projekt erweiterte McNown seinen kreativen Kreis. Der Songwriter und Produzent Julian Bunetta wirkte am Songwriting mit, während der Gitarrist Charlie Worsham zu den Musikern zählt, die an den Sessions beteiligt waren. Trotz des breiteren Spektrums an Mitwirkenden bleibt das Album in McNowns textorientiertem Ansatz beim Songwriting verwurzelt.

Viele der Songs reflektieren die Beziehungen, die McNown während seines rasanten Aufstiegs unterstützt haben. Anstatt sich ausschließlich auf den beruflichen Erfolg zu konzentrieren, erkundet „Leave On A Light“ den Wert von Familie, Ehe und einem Ort der Stabilität abseits des Lebens auf Tour.

Max McNown
At 23, McNown has already been on a storied musical journey. Taking control of his future, overcoming personal challenges, and drawing inspiration from his brother who was bravely fighting cancer, McNown packed his bags and drove from remote Oregon to Southern California. From there, videos of him busking on a pier made an impact online and eventually grew into a legion of supporters on TikTok (currently has 2.3M followers). After attracting interest from major TV talent shows, McNown auditioned for one and then decided it wasn’t for him and gracefully turned them down as he knew he needed to walk his own path.

Within just a year of teaching himself to play guitar, the Nashville-based artist set off on a meteoric rise largely fueled by his breakout single “A Lot More Free”, a RIAA Gold-certified track whose explosive success includes peaking at #1 on the iTunes singles chart and earning him a #1 spot on Billboard’s Emerging Artists chart. Following the release of his widely lauded debut album Wandering, the Willfully Blind EP, and his acclaimed sophomore album Night Diving, the 23-year-old Oregon native continued his fast ascent to stardom and made his TV performance debut with an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show earlier this year, in addition to selling out his first-ever headline tour within just hours. Named a 2025 Artist To Watch by Amazon Music, Holler, and Country Now, McNown now embarks on a thrilling new chapter with Night Diving (The Cost of Growing Up): a 21-song powerhouse that shows the complete depth of his artistry like never before.

One of the “brightest newly minted stars to come out of Nashville in recent years” (GRAMMY.com), McNown has impressively sold out every stop of his debut headline tour after spending the past year opening for stars like Wynonna Judd, Wyatt Flores, Michael Marcagi, Sam Barber, 502s, Corey Kent, Trampled by Turtles, JOSEPH, and more. McNown recently made his UK and European debut at C2C: Country to Country Festival in London, Berlin and Rotterdam and will be returning overseas for a headlining tour across the UK, the Netherlands, Germany and France in December.
