Maxwell And The Silent Serenade Ensemble with special guest Yola

Maxwell has artfully managed to transfix music lovers for more than two decades, releasing five studio albums, all in his own time and all duly anointed as classics. The soul singer redefined soul music in April of 1996 when he released his critically acclaimed debut on Columbia, ‘Maxwell’s Urban Hang Suite.’ It earned Grammy nominations, double platinum status and RIAA platinum for the single, “Ascension (Don’t Ever Wonder).” The platinum albums ‘Embrya’ (1998) and ‘Now’ (2001) followed. In 2009, Maxwell’s ‘BLACKsummers’night’ debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, earning two Grammy awards, including Best R&B Album. With a total of four platinum album certifications from the RIAA, Maxwell’s latest album, ‘blackSUMMERS’night,’ earned him a third Grammy (Best R&B Song for “Lake By The Ocean”), an NAACP Image Award (Outstanding Male Artist), and a Soul Train Award (Best R&B/Soul Male Artist). Recent accolades for Maxwell include the “Legend” Award at the 2021 Soul Train Awards and a performance at the 2022 Billboard Music Awards, where he paid tribute to Michael Jackson with “The Lady In My Life.” His critically acclaimed ‘The Night Tour’ made Pollstar’s 2022 list of “Top 20 Global Concert Tours,” (determined by average box office gross and the average ticket price for shows worldwide). His recently wrapped Serenade 2024 North American Tour saw the artist play to his legions of fans across the continent, while returning to iconic venues such as Barclays Center and Kia Forum to major praise furthering cementing him a formidable force in the neo-soul and R&B spheres. Maxwell’s “Simply Beautiful,” a rendition of the classic Al Green cut that has been incorporated into his own mythology for years, topped Billboard’s Adult R&B Airplay Radio Chart, marking his ninth #1 single to top the chart and his 16th top ten hit throughout his illustrious career
