Max Gomez is a young singer/songwriter from Taos, NM, with the soul of someone much older and the ability to tap the child-like wonder in all of us.

Taking a page from his old-school Americana influences, the gravelly voiced baritone crooner got his start as a working musician singing Johnny Cash’s version of Kris Kristofferson’s “Sunday Morning Coming Down,” counting those two, as well as Townes Van Zandt, John Prine, Neil Young and Tom Petty, along with roots like Robert Johnson, Big Bill Broonzy and B.B. King, among his favorites.

The son of a Portuguese/Spanish father and an Irish/Scottish mom, Gomez grew up in Taos, a beautiful town which sits at 7,000 feet, surrounded by peaks twice as high, an artsy community whose culture is influenced by its Native American population and old world Spanish adobe buildings. After attending the Recording Artist Program in Hollywood, where he learned about recording, writing and the business side of the music industry, Gomez divided his time between his hometown, Nashville, L.A. and Atlanta, where he began collaborating with fellow singer-songwriter Shawn Mullins. The two have co-written four songs, three of which are slated to appear on Mullins’ next album.

For now, the singer/songwriter is busy playing shows in the New Mexico area, while continuing to hone his craft. What you see is what you get with Max Gomez. His time has come.
