singer/songwriter max colby writes songs that capture the truth of what is going on in the world today.

his acclaimed song, 'red lake massacre' captures the emotions regarding the recent school shootings at the red lake indian reservation. songs like 'farm it on', 'pfc' and 'pieces of eight' touch on topics such as corruption in government, from rural small towns to the nation's capitol city.

the 25 year old has spent much of his life wandering and experiencing life from the point of view of the hopeless youth of america's 'generation z'. where drugs and alcohol start as just a way to pass time, and grow to consume the consciences of the many lost souls of those addictions seek to devour.
with max's original songs 'this may scar', 'these aimless days', and 'as the warmth bleeds out of the sun' the listener will understand the struggles of growing up in america, and the temptations we all face, and the fight to overcome them.

most significantly, the message of warning in songs like 'weapons of mass distraction', 'infanticide', 'drop the jawbone' and 'on the way' are among the warning cries for us all to tear down our walls, open our eyes and and pay attention to what is really going on around us, before it's too late.

once you experience a max colby concert, you will come to believe that there is no time like the present to take action in our own lives and do something positive with our time to make the world around us better in some way, fight for a cause, and give a helping hand to those in need.

in addition to the politically and spiritually charged songs, max keeps a crowd entertained with his wide range of both modern and traditional cover tunes in folk, celtic and bluegrass flavorings. add in some humor and his mastery of many different accents, and you'll be an instant fan of max colby.


Is. 42:3 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. (kjv)
