DC Maxwell is THE SINGER

The long awaited second album from the Melbourne’s Last Living Song and Dance Man is finally here. Dropping on May 22 The Singer is a gripping and ruthlessly written collection of songs about love and loss in a dying world.

From 90s inspired rock bangers to tenderly written ballads with legendary US songwriter Bonnie “Prince” Billy, The Singer is an album for the current moment, interrogating what it means to make and enjoy art in an age where death looms over our every breath.

DC Maxwell has fast become one of the most exciting live acts around, called “one of the most charismatic live performers on these shores” by Rolling Stone AU. Whether delivered with the rock intensity of a punk preacher hanging from the rafters or tenderly delivered acoustic ballads, DC Maxwell is a multi-faceted artist with a through line to some of the songwriting greats inspired by Gareth Liddiard, PJ Harvey, and Nick Cave.

Fresh off his soon-to-be legendary unplugged show IN THE ROUND AT EMERALD HALL, this run of Australian shows will take the project to new heights, showing why this artist is a new force to be reckoned with.

Come see what all the fuss is about. We dare you. Stand there with your arms folded and your eyes cold seeing if this song and dance man can impress you. Let’s see if you crack a smile, or nod your head, or god forbid… DANCE!
