New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Shore Fire Media) - New Ambassador of soul
Maxwell has added four additional dates to his fall arena tour, satisfying a demand for tickets that helped him become one of the top five best-selling touring acts this year. He will now perform 18 shows this fall, including his first-ever headlining date at New York City's Madison
Square Garden.
'BLACKsummers'night,' Maxwell's 'powerful dose of heartbroken soul" (Entertainment Weekly), enjoyed an 11% bounce on soundscan this week, spurred by a 2-song performance on Jimmy Kimmel Live's summer concert series. The concert, which had an overwhelming turnout of over 2000 fans, was said to be 'good to the last drop of sweat' by the Boston Herald. With one of the ten best selling albums of 2009 and a performance and interview on Ellen set for September 17th, Maxwell is rapidly nearing platinum status.

Picked as one of their early front-runners for Album of the Year, the LA Times declared that 'BLACKsummers'night' 'hits a span of emotions without telegraphing them a seductive, yet devastatingly heartbreaking record. Look for it on year-end lists, and look for it in this field.'
