Maxwell Hughes covers Lumineers, his former band
Maxwell Hughes helped kick off the Colorado Music Party with a set of songs on Tuesday, March 17, during SXSW 2015 in Austin, Texas.
Hughes, a Fort Collins resident, was a member of The Lumineers, and he played an instrumental version of the band’s hit “Stubborn Love.” The guitarist is known for his complex technique, which he gives a taste of in his “Stubborn Love,” with its interplay of rhythm and melody. Some in the crowd sang along, providing words to Hughes’ music.
The Colorado Music Festival, organized by the Fort Collins nonprofit SpokesBUZZ, is a five-day event at the 512 on Sixth Street in Austin.
