Max Gomez: Cosmic-Country Folk LIVE in the Roots' speakeasy

Singer/Songwriter Max Gomez grew up in Taos, New Mexico, where he fell under the influence of country blues early on and developed a songwriting style that was uniquely his. He received critical acclaim upon the release of his debut album Rule The World (2013, New West Records); and hissubsequent EP, Me and Joe (2017, Brigadoon Records), contained a freshly minted classic, “Make It Me,”which has gained over 4 million listeners on Spotify alone. As a budding performer, Max apprenticed in the rarefied musical micro-climate of northern New Mexico,where troubadours like Michael Martin Murphey and Ray Wylie Hubbard helped foster a Western folk sound both cosmic and country.He has shared billing on hundreds of stages with stalwarts of the genre like James McMurtry, BuddyMiller, John Hiatt, Patty Griffin, Tommy James & The Shondells, Jeff Beck, and Johnny Depp.Judging bythe company he keeps, Gomez is poisedto emerge as a prominent voice of Americana’s next generation.The forthcoming album, Memory Mountain, will release this summer.
