About Me

maximo made it out to venice, california a couple of weeks ago - and its good to be 'back'. after spending 2 months in my holland homeland, im stoked to see some sunshine again

right now im busy doing prac for upcoming gigs and tours w/ brant bjork & the bros - will add more dates as they get confirmed. we got dylan roche on bass and giam paolo (from the land of italy) on drums. ive been a fan of brants music since i was a little kid, so its definitly a big honor for maximo to be playing guitar w/ these dudes. its a new trip, it sounds rockin', so come check it out!

also, i put my solo record(s) on hold for a while as ive got plenty of other things on my plate. some of the tunes on this myspace page are outtakes & demos from various sessions over the last year
