10 years…5 cds...respect as a songwriter… top flight band…an expanding and loyal fan base. Not TOO bad of a track record for a guy who never felt he really had any business being in the music business.
“I didn’t even pick up a guitar until graduate school,” notes Max Stalling. After high school in Carrizo Springs, Texas, Stalling went to Texas A&M in College Station and earned a master's degree in Food Science. Stalling took the corporate road to Dallas in 1991, working for Rainbo Bread and then in product development for snack food giant Frito-Lay. "I had no expectation of even being in the music business. I just liked to write songs," says Stalling.
Then, while listening to Dallas community radio station KNON, Max discovered a whole new chapter in his life. Townes Van Zandt, Robert Earl Keen, Guy Clark, Lyle Lovett, Ray Wylie Hubbard, Rodney Crowell, Jerry Jeff Walker - singer/songwriters representing a musical heritage to which he had been nearly oblivious. Soon he discovered the emerging Dallas music scene at the Three Teardrops Tavern, a now defunct, but very central part of the Dallas and North Texas country music scene through the mid-90s. “I guess the 3Ts is where I must have stepped on a rusty guitar string and gotten infected with the music biz bug,” says Stalling.
