Max Embers Returns With The Stunner “got to get you”

LA singer-songwriter Max Embers released his latest single and music video “got to get you” on June 4. Written only a few days after his previous single “wildest dreams,” the new track reflects a different facet of the same topics; an overarching theme of introspection and soul-searching. These two releases serve as the teasers to Embers’ upcoming EP idyllwild, which was entirely sparked during a solo writing retreat in Idyllwild, CA.

Embers’ enticing voice paired with lyrical melodies that refresh the listener’s ear create a song that is not only thought-provoking but also an easy, encouraging listen. The message of “got to get you” will always be undeniably relevant. Embers proudly admits that he isn’t close to finding himself – and he fully expects to continue his journey of self-exploration for many, many years to come. “I don’t want to be done exploring myself or life as a whole – until it’s all done!” The single will be paired with a music video to continue Embers’ visual representations of each song from the idyllwild EP. The video will feature the same diary style and themes as “wildest dreams,” but with a darker feel from nighttime footage. Fans can stream and watch “got to get you” on all major platforms.

Max Embers is an independent singer-songwriter based in Los Angeles, California. Born and raised in a small town in Germany, he won the internationally renowned music competition Jugend Musiziert shortly before graduating from High School. He went on to study at Berklee College of Music in Boston, one of the leading contemporary music institutions in the world, where he had the privilege of sharing the stage with multi-platinum selling artist Paula Cole and Emmy, Tony Award, and Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, Harry Belafonte. Since moving to Los Angeles, Max has worked with major label artists like Noah Cyrus, Felix Sandman, Joji, Matoma, Colton Dixon, and renowned writers such as Grammy Award-winning writers A-Rod Lambert and Anita McCloud.

In 2019, Max was a finalist on the premiere of NBC’s Songland, performing his original song “Back Home” for Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Award winner John Legend and collaborating directly with three-time Grammy Award-winning producer Ryan Tedder with whom he co-wrote his single “Lookin’ Up”. In the same year, he partnered up with the British label Frtyfve and the Movember foundation to release two records as part of the ‘Mo Sounds’ initiative. Max’s original music has garnered more than 5 million streams and his debut EP idyllwild is scheduled for summer 2021. Besides working as a songwriter with artists like Swedish Melodienfestivalen star Felix Sandman and Grammy nominee Noah Cyrus, his latest cuts include DJ features with Niiko x Swae, Bhaskar, and Enkode, as well as the multi-language duet project “I Dare You” by American Idol winner and three-time Grammy recipient Kelly Clarkson featuring the German pop-group Glasperlenspiel.
