NEWS - Rising Star Max McNown Announced For Pinkpop Festival 2026 

At just 24, 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 . McNown only learned guitar a year prior to the initial success of 'A Lot More Free'. 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 and moved to Nashville.
