BIOGRAPHY
David Maxwell amassed an enormous resume throughout the years playing piano with some of the greatest and best-known musicians in the blues. David played many styles of blues, jazz and improvised music, but he was best known for his soulful virtuosity and unmatched ability to reach the heart of post-war Chicago Blues.
Through his work, he gained the respect of artists, critics and fans and, long before he succumbed to cancer in February 2015, David had established a reputation as one of the finest blues pianists of all-time.
David took part in James Cotton's 1997 Grammy winning album "Deep In The Blues" and also contributed a solo piano piece to a Fred MacDowell tribute album that was nominated for a Grammy. David has 14 WC Handy Blues Music Award nominations. His album, "You Got To Move", featuring the late Louisiana Red, won the 2011Acoustic Album of the Year BMA award, and in 2012, his CD "Conversations in Blue", a collaboration with one of Otis Spann's records, won the same award. His other nominations were for the "Pinetop Perkins Piano Player of the Year"......
