Say Anything frontman, acclaimed songwriter, and mental health advocate Max Bemis will close out the summer with three intimate solo performances unlike anything he’s presented before.
Rather than traditional acoustic shows, the evenings will combine songs from throughout his celebrated catalog with the stories, inspirations, and unexpected moments behind them, creating an experience that feels equal parts VH1 Storytellers, MTV Unplugged, and an evening spent with one of alternative rock’s most distinctive songwriters.
“I recently relaunched my Song Shop with what I thought was going to be a quick, hour-long Instagram Live,” says Bemis. “Instead, we just kept going because I was having too much fun. What I loved wasn’t just playing songs, it was talking about where they came from, what they mean, the weird stories behind writing them, and all the ridiculous and meaningful things that have happened because of them over the years.
“The conversations and back-and-forth with everyone watching reminded me how much I’d missed that part of performing. That inspired these shows. They’re really an excuse to play songs and tell way too many stories. I’ve got songs, but I’ve definitely got even more stories. We’ll see how it goes with these three shows and if we all survive, maybe there’ll be more.”
Upcoming Solo Storyteller Dates – Tickets On Sale HERE.
Alongside the upcoming performances, Bemis has officially reopened his acclaimed Song Shop, the fan-favorite project that allows listeners to commission original songs and personalized experiences directly from one of alternative music’s most distinctive creative voices.
Originally launched in 2008, Song Shop gives fans the opportunity to commission custom songs inspired by their own stories, milestones, and memories. Current offerings include original Song Shop compositions, SongStreams, one-on-one Zoom experiences featuring conversation, fan-requested songs, and a custom composition written and performed live during the session, as well as personalized video messages, private performances, and other unique experiences. Check it out HERE.
Between the return of Song Shop, the upcoming storyteller-style performances, his recent signing with Civilized Artist Management, and additional Say Anything music on the horizon, Bemis shows no signs of slowing down. More solo dates, music announcements, and touring news will be revealed in the coming months.
