Multi-platinum-selling neo-soul superstar Maxwell has been announced as the first headliner for next summer’s Love Supreme Jazz Festival, which returns to Glynde Place in East Sussex from July 4th – 6th 2025. The 13x Grammy-nominee and triple-Grammy winner, whose debut album Urban Hang Suite propelled him to international fame in the late ‘90s, will close the festival on the evening of Sunday July 6th for what will be his first UK appearance in 9 years and only UK date of 2025.
Alongside the likes of Erykah Badu and D’Angelo, Brooklyn-born Maxwell played a pivotal role in the evolution of the neo-soul movement of the late ‘90s. His 1996 debut Maxwell’s Urban Hang Suite earned multiple Grammy nominations, double platinum status and spawned the hit single Ascension (Don’t Ever Wonder). Platinum-selling albums Embrya (1998) and Now (2001) followed and in 2009 Maxwell’s BLACKsummers’night debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, earning two Grammys including Best R&B Album, before latest album blackSUMMERS’night earned a third Grammy, and cemented his status within the pantheon of all-time R&B greats.
