Introducing - Joey Maxwell
If there’s one quality that Joey Maxwell possesses in abundance, it’s his unfiltered honesty. Going Thru Changes is Joey’s debut - a self depreciating indie pop track that criticises destructive behaviour in the midst of an unstable relationship and how that spiralling crisis affects other aspects of your life. Featuring a saxophone on this first release creates a stunning contrast... a sunny type of sadness.
After lyrically laying yourself bare, most musicians retreat but stepping onto a stage for his first live performance; the London artist declares his nervousness before channelling his anxiety into a high energy gig that sets the tone for what’s to come. It’s this sincerity and proneness to say whatever comes into his head that makes Joey so endearing, he addresses you like a friend and you instantly feel at ease.
The 21 year old is no stranger to the music scene though, having fronted the band Indigo Husk for quite some time his experience with being able to work a crowd is evident. Especially when he manages to get the audience enthusiastic about participating during songs; even the ones by themselves hiding in the corners of the room.
With an EP on the way, the future looks full of promise. Not only is the emerging artist determined to have fun, but his lyrical content doesn’t shy away from truth or personal situations. In an age where everyone wants to share themselves with conditions and filters attached, we’re crying out for the quintessential Joey Maxwell experience.

Can a song be raw and swanky at the same time? Newcomer Joey Maxwell answers with a resounding yes on his winsome debut, ‘going thru changes’, an inviting and infectious track that showcases a dynamic blend of his raw indie vocals, funky brass melodies, and a hip-hop inspired, playful prancing beat. With it, the compelling new artist encapsulates the teenage angst we’ve all gone through. Joey Maxwell, who hails from South-East London, says of his debut single: “going thru changes is a self-deprecating homage to all the things that are out of my control. Written at a time when I was going through a lot of life changes, assimilating it to a failing relationship was more just a way to compress and satirise one of those times in life where everything sets you off into an existential crisis.” Maxwell’s heartfelt music explores the challenging path towards adulthood. ‘going thru changes’ is our first taste of the 21 year old prodigy’s forthcoming EP. It’s a huge entrance from a very much under-the-radar talent, but it won’t be long before ears perk and people take notice as Joey Maxwell prepares to establish himself as a prominent voice in the UK music scene and beyond.
