The traditions of jazz form the foundation for Shawn’s music; he builds on that with inspiration from the music he grew up with – rock, funk, hip hop, R&B, classical. Though his compositions have been compared to Frank Zappa, Philip Glass, the Canterbury Sound, and Bach…Shawn’s albums have received accolades and airplay across the country and around the world, including two Downbeat Magazine “Best Albums of the Year” and four “Editor’s Picks”, reviews from Chicago Tribune, Jazz Times, Cadence Magazine, AllAboutJazz, and dozens of national and local music publications. His recordings have reached the Top 50 on JazzWeek and College Music Journal Jazz Charts.His albums have featured a variety of working groups: several quartets, quintets like Shawn Maxwell’s New Tomorrow, and the ten-piece ensemble Shawn Maxwell’s Alliance. Expectation & Experience (Jazzline/Delta, 2021) featured remotely-recorded collaborations with twenty nine other musicians, including Howard Levy, Ernie Adams and Tom Sharpe.As a Vandoren and Conn-Selmer artist, Shawn’s Master Classes and Guest Appearances are a favorite of students from college through elementary school, combining his pedagogical skills with a performer’s sensibilities.~~~~~~~~~~⭐ LEWIS ACHENBACH ⭐‘Jazz Painter’ Lewis Achenbach has been capturing the frequency in the room with his signature Jazz Occurrence discipline (art + music) internationally and in Chicago since 2012.
