Born and raised in the Midwest, Max Look can’t seem to shake his Cleveland roots. Even with a full fledged cross-country move, the grit and self-deprecation of the rust belt seep into Look’s songs unapologetically. Taking influence from the likes of Paul Westerberg, Alex Chilton, and Graham Parsons, he fuses powerpop jangle and rhythms with twangy undertones to create a unique cosmic country sound, born out of a beer-soaked garage. Now based in Los Angeles with a seasoned backing band, Max Look continues his blend of country and pop stylings with a new set of tunes, The Cruise EP. Recorded and produced with brother, Jason Look, the duo achieve what the Everly Brother’s called blood harmony, without actually ever singing together.
