About
For Max Stalling, rolling the dice was an inevitable choice. Giving up a highly successful day job to follow the seductive, unpredictable winding road of Country Music was, eventually, just another one of his tough decisions proven out. "I have to write songs," says the tall, 35-year old Stalling, "I knew it right after graduate school - and even if I wasn't in the music business - I'd still be writing songs." However, finding success as a performing songwriter has changed Stalling's perspective about all of it. Stalling's country-folk style is always more interested in the journey than the destination. A genuine voice - his words are intelligent, simple, even transparent - allowing listeners to see deeper roots and meanings in his songs. The variety of emotions and characters in the stories seem to set a stage - giving listeners plenty of room for their own endings and interpretations.
