MAXON

About the Artist

Stirring, intimate and fearlessly open-hearted, the brand new song 'Little Blue' from award-winning singer-songwriter Maxon is a tender glimpse into her debut album, 'Talking With Strangers', released on April 8th 2026. 'Little Blue' tugs at the heartstrings while also offering one of her most open-veined singles to date. Glimmering to life with Maxon's luminous vocals set against a sparse but warm backdrop, 'Little Blue' swells into a soaring and softly propulsive pop-folk ode to family bonds, distance, closeness and everything in between. Conjuring 'Little Blue' poised on the edge of her bed one winter morning, its arrival was almost instant for Maxon, and it’s one that resonates both universally with its serene splendour alongside its deeply personal narrative. “Little Blue is a soft place to land”, shares Maxon. “Written for my younger brother, it lives in a world of care… the kind that doesn’t try to fix, only to sit beside. It’s full of those quiet, in-between moments: a look across a room, a shared silence, the feeling of wanting to protect someone you love from a world you know can be heavy.” Produced by Jono Steer, 'Little Blue' also once again finds Maxon teaming up with some incredible artists to bring her creative vision to life, with guest instrumentalists and harmonies effortlessly amplifying the song’s lyrical vulnerability and rumination, as Maxon elaborates, “There’s so much tenderness in the way this song was built. Pamela Zaharias’ drums move gently but with certainty, like breath, while Ezekiel Fenn’s bass and keys wrap around the song with warmth. The pedal steel from Matt Dixon feels like a voice of its own… something aching and beautiful just under the surface. And woven through it all are the harmonies with Nay Pattuwage, holding the song like a conversation that doesn’t need many words.”
