Max McNown Interview at Lollapalooza 2025 - 'Night Diving (The Cost of Growing Up)' & Career Growth

Max McNown is an artist that is transcending genres and paving a lane of his own in the music industry. His music blends country influences from artists such as Zach Bryan and Tyler Childers along with the acoustic folk pop sound made popular by Noah Kahan.

His latest album 'Night Diving (The Cost of Growing Up)' follows his debut album 'Wandering', which features radio hits “A Lot More Free” and “Love Me Back”. McNown’s songs have a strong emotional feeling with deeply personal lyrics. While his music might often be featured on country playlists and radio stations, he continues to establish a unique folk-country sound that reflects his upbringing in Bend, Oregon matched with his current home in Nashville, Tennessee.

Lollapalooza weekend started on Friday night for Max, with an official aftershow at the intimate Reggie’s Rock Club. He then made his Lolla debut on the T-Mobile Stage Saturday afternoon, followed by a more exclusive set on the other side of the park at Bud Light Backyard.

We interviewed Max on Saturday before his set on Lollapalooza’s main stage. He’s an artist with a distinct sound who has enjoyed a rapid rise to the top levels of the music industry. Read and watch our full Max McNown interview below.
