More MAXON More MAXON

Melbourne indie pop/rock singer-songwriter MAXON reflects on a period of cyclic grieving with her powerful new single, History.

The new tune and its accompanying video see a wild transformation for the artist, who returns to the spotlight “strong, unstoppable, and willing to burn bridges”.

“I have done so much growing over the past two years and I think History is simply a diary entry in a melody,” MAXON said. 

“This song is the first step I’ve ever taken towards bravery and self-acceptance. It’s long over-due and represents a major turning point in my life and I hope my career as well.  

“I’m breaking free from a long-standing history of self-doubt, inflicted upon me throughout my life, and I'm burning all those bridges behind me to focus on a productive future full of bravery and self-love. It’s extremely hard to live a full and happy life when a person you love is constantly putting you down.

“I’m learning to reflect those things now and accept everyone for who they are - because we don’t know what they’ve been through to get to that point. And in turn, accept myself and reward myself more for the progress I am making with my mental health.”
