Maxwell may take a few steps back from the mic at times, but one thing is for sure.. He’s never lost his touch. Since his 2009 album release, BLACKsummers’night, the king of soul has been very quiet with music. Today he breaks his silence with a new single offering titled Lake By The Ocean. The record will appear on his forthcoming studio LP, blackSUMMERS’night, which will make its debut May 1st.
The album will be dropping the same day as his headline performance at the 2016 ESSENCE Festival and serve as an anniversary project to his original debut, Maxwell’s Urban Hang Suite. With 20 years of feeding incredible music to the souls of all who listen, Maxwell has made yet another beautiful return to the game. See below for a few words shared from the singer & pick up his new single via iTunes here:
