Born and raised in TX before relocating to NYC in later years, Max grew up with his older brother Andrew with influences from the punk and post punk groups of the 1970's and 80's. Along with two other members, they formed the amazing Parquet Courts and have since made a name for themselves amongst the greats of our generation. Today Max resides in DC and plays in another group called MaxBand and have released two albums and are currently working on a new LP! It was a totAL pleasure speaking to Max as PQ is one of my favorite contemporary groups. Enjoy!
