“The privilege of hindsight helps us accept that relationships don’t always last forever,” <\/em>says Max McNown. “‘Roses and Wolves’ is written from a place of comfort in the realization that the world will keep spinning and heartbreak is part of life. Hailey Whitters’ beautiful vocals created a unique energy and truly brought this song to life!”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Equally as appreciative, Hailey Whitters shares, “I was so glad Max asked me to sing on this! He’s an incredible artist and I’m so honored he asked me to be a part of such a great song.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Roses and Wolves” follows the release of the introspective single “Better Me For You (Brown Eyes)<\/a>,” which boasts earnest lyrics on rising to the occasion for a once-in-a-lifetime love. Both tracks are part of the stunning Night Diving<\/em> LP, which is McNown’s promising followup to his critically-acclaimed debut album Wandering<\/a><\/em>. Produced by Jamie Kenney (Colbie Caillat, Laci Kaye Booth), Night Diving<\/em> is a body of work that explores new and daring sonic terrain while fully affirming McNown’s extraordinary capacity to ease the mind and strengthen the soul. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

McNown’s latest triumphs include being named Billboard<\/em>‘s Country Rookie of the Month<\/a> for November following his feature as CMT’s<\/em> Next Up Now artist of October, when we saw the release of Willfully Blind<\/a><\/em>. The EP landed as the Oregon-born artist made his AmericanaFest debut, and as we saw another major resurgence of his breakout hit single “A Lot More Free<\/a>” after this TikTok<\/a> celebrating the track’s one year anniversary went viral (14.8M views and counting). Since the single’s release it has amassed over 80M+ streams, earned McNown a top spot as #1 on Billboard’s Emerging Artists chart, peaked at #1 on the iTunes singles chart and #1 on the TikTok Breakthrough USA chart, climbed the Canadian Hot 100 chart, and was placed on Spotify’s Hot Country and Viral 50 global playlists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At 23, McNown has already been on a storied musical journey. Taking control of his future, overcoming personal challenges, and drawing inspiration from his brother who was bravely fighting cancer, McNown packed his bags and drove from remote Oregon to Southern California. From there, videos of him busking on a pier made an impact online and eventually grew into a legion of supporters on TikTok<\/a> (currently has 1.9M followers). After attracting interest from major TV talent shows, McNown auditioned for one and then decided it wasn’t for him, and gracefully turned them down as he knew he needed to walk his own path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this year, McNown earned ample support for his first full-length record, Wandering<\/a><\/em>, which was listed as a top debut album of the year by Whiskey Riff, and lauded by Holler, American Songwriter, People Magazine, and more. He then went on his first tours supporting folk band Briscoe, Australian artist Blake Rose, and opened for major country stars such as Wynonna Judd, plus made his Grand Ole Opry debut.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n
