Crystal Maxwell, a firebrand of Perth's music scene, is not your average alt-rock act. Unapologetically bold and brash, Crystal storms the stage with a captivating presence.
Crystal's musical journey is a rebellious one, fuelled by a love for the unfiltered and the unexpected. As a songwriter and guitarist, she crafts lyrics that bite with a sound that refuses to be confined, establishing herself as a force to be reckoned with in the alt-rock genre. Her debut single, "Come Find Me," didn't just make an entrance; it blasted its way onto Australian and international airwaves, announcing her arrival with a sonic punch that left listeners craving more.
In their review, Around The Sound shared that Crystal’s second single, “‘Cherry’ is as subtle a song as it is hard hitting. It captures the moment a woman transcends her tormentor and comes into her own. In that respect alone, it is a must listen” while calling ‘Cherry’ a lesson in musical edge play.
Now, as Crystal gears up for next single release in April, the anticipation is palpable. Fans can expect another dose of assertive, in-your-face alt-rock, with Crystal's signature blend of cheeky humour and unbridled energy.
“Satin Sheets is for anyone who ever moved to a new town as a teenager and had a crush on the blonde boy next door, only to have him ignore you. However, a few years later when you’re back from uni he sees your car parked in the driveway and invites you to listen to some rock music and you absolutely take the bait, because you love rock, and the next thing you know you’re discovering the pure joy of his satin sheets.”
Crystal is celebrating the launch of ‘Satin Sheets’ at Four5Nine on April 13th. She’ll be sharing the night with good friends, Crystal Adele, Unit 3 and The Wait.
Conformity may reign, but Crystal Maxwell stands tall, a fearless provocateur who is challenging the status quo and redefining what it means to be an artist. Brace yourselves for the next chapter in Crystal's audacious musical journey.
