Maxwell Storytellers To Air This Month

The mood was definitely set for "Sumthin' Sumthin'" as Maxwell and his 10-piece, all-star band eased into a soul-filled set in front of an intimate 150-member audience at Metropolis Studios in NYC on May 11th. The double Grammy-winning and multi-platinum artist connected immediately with the crowd as he beamed with pride over his involvement with the iconic series declaring, "Storytellers has been around for 15 years, and it's been 15 years since I put out my first album 'Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite'�You have this dream as a kid, and the next thing you know you're at 'VH1 Storytellers' and the crowd is singing along to your songs. It's a blessing."

The evening's 12-song set highlighted Maxwell's groove-filled catalogue of hits with several tracks from the Grammy Award-winning, "BLACKsummers'night." Taking a break from preparing for the sequel to that album, VH1 took Maxwell back in time to play past favorites and celebrate with fans. The anticipated new album, "SUMMERS'," will be released soon.
