Max Gardener
Max Gardener is a Long Beach indie rock artist who calls his sound Barbecue Pop. Music you can throw on at an afternoon barbecue, rooted in the easy, unpolished charm of '70s rock. With over 780,000 streams across platforms, his latest album Things We Tell Ourselves, released October 24, 2025 via Sadie Street Records, marks a shift from lo-fi bedroom recordings to something warmer, fuller, and built to last.
