25 Mar Max Cartier releases new single “It’s Impossible”, announces debut EP “Words of Love”
Today, Paris-based crooner Max Cartier is releasing his new single, ‘It’s Impossible’, and announcing his first EP, “Words of Love”, out on April 21st. A collection of classics from the Big Band era, The EP was recorded at the iconic Capitol Studios in Los Angeles and produced by multi GRAMMY® winner Chris Walden.
“I relate to the elegance of these timeless songs,” Max says. “I get into the words and make their story my own. I’m putting in all my soul to show everyone who I am inside. It’s like being exposed naked in front of the mic; you open up completely”.
Moved by a newfound passion for singing, Max started recording his first songs in 2021, picking up timeless titles about love and romance, which move him and make him feel recognized. “My Way” was the born-again Crooner’s debut single, followed by “The Lady is a Tramp”. Then, he recorded the full EP in the legendary Capitol Studios, using Frank Sinatra’s own favourite microphone, with an orchestra of over 50 musicians and the production of Chris Walden. The timeless quality of his voice, with its bright, warm tone and suave clarity, evokes the epic romance of the Big Band era without getting stuck in the past.
Though his songs might flirt with nostalgia’s allure, Max Cartier isn’t looking back. Get ready to join him on an exciting new musical journey. Max is currently working on a new album with all original songs in French, written in collaboration with the talented Parisian composer Johan Czerneski.
