Max Clarke is the Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter and musician presently known as Cut Worms. Cut Worm’s new Self Titled album continues Clarke’s exploration of what he calls “pop essentialism”. Mining the golden hits of yesteryear for a timeless sound, he contemplates age-old questions through a modern lens. Here, he leaves behind the legendary studio and sought-after producers for a more homegrown approach, working with a cast of gifted friends and collaborators. The result is a compact collection of daydream anthems that live between the summer’s hopeful beginnings and the season’s fleeting end. Cut Worm’s Self Titled LP broke out of the gates in 2023, landing Clarke on the Billboard charts for the first time ever. Receiving praise from Paste Magazine as “Clarke’s brightest entry yet, one of the best rock ‘n’ roll records of 2023.” Cut Worms will continue touring and touting his newest album throughout 2024
