Hailed by Rolling Stone as a songwriter who "stylishly proves the hype was real" and UTR as "indisputably one of Tāmaki Makaurau’s hottest rising talents," D.C. Maxwell’s debut album Lone Rider was launched in mid-2023 via US tastemakers Danger Collective. Recently unveiling a soul-scorching cover of Agitator by Te Papaioea's legendary Skeptics for NZ Music Month, D.C. Maxwell will soon join Holly Arrowsmith for a headline date in his new home base of Naarm / Melbourne, on 18th August at Wesley Anne.
