Maxwell George Schneider (born June 21, 1992), also known by his mononym Max (stylized in all caps), is an American singer and actor. He is best known for his 2016 single "Lights Down Low" (featuring gnash), which peaked within the top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100 and received triple platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[1][2][3] A sleeper hit, the song emerged from his second album, Hell's Kitchen Angel (2016), which was released by DCD2 Records and narrowly entered the Billboard 200. He signed with Arista Records to release his third album, Color Vision (2020).

Schneider was nominated for Best New Pop Artist at the 2019 iHeartRadio Music Awards, and, in 2020, his single "Love Me Less" received gold certification by the RIAA and Music Canada (MC).[1][2]
