About Maxx McGathey Orchestra:
Composer & pianist Maxx McGatheyโ€™s immersive sound-world is dark, energetic, epic and adventurous. Mixing elements of cinematic jazz, modern classical, and his love for heavy groove-based music, McGathey crafts instrumental stories that pull you in to their vast worlds using a large ensemble of strings, winds and rhythm section to give the music grand scope. His most recent album โ€œImaginary Eyesโ€ released in 2024 on Nudie Records, is a deep dive into this cavernous twilight zone, which uses the sounds of mid-20th century suspense cinema as a jumping off point for more modern experimentation. Many of McGatheyโ€™s previous composing projects have also had a cinematic element, whether the 12+ year running b-horror-funk band Gramps The Vamp or the spaghetti western themed album Dark Canyon (for which McGathey was a co-writer). McGathey has also written and performed 9 feature-length live film scores for clients like WBEZ, The Music Box Theater and the Chicago Park Districtโ€™s โ€œMovies in the Parksโ€, as well as various independent theaters around the midwest. These past experiences give all of McGatheyโ€™s music a strong sense of story and setting that adds to their immersive feel. ...
