The Sticks Music Releases The Bonfire Sessions Episode Two with Max Alan — A Stripped-Back Live Performance Around the Fire
Mt. Juliet, TN — May 27, 2025 — Sauce Music LLC and our country/folk imprint The Sticks Music are proud to release Episode Two of The Bonfire Sessions, the stripped-back live performance series filmed under the stars and around a real bonfire in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee.
This week’s featured artist is Max Alan, a rising country voice from Pennsylvania who delivers a heartfelt two-song set including his standout single “Lucy Dear” — available now on The Sticks Music Youtube — and a rendition of hit song, “Sky Blue,” which is set to release later this week. With sincere vocals and timeless storytelling, Max brings a powerful emotional presence to the fireside format.
The performance is further elevated by an outstanding ensemble. Julia DiGrazia shines on fiddle, with Brendan Walter on guitar — both also providing backing vocals. Their harmonies and musical contributions add a rich, layered quality to the set that enhances the intimate vibe of the Bonfire Sessions. A special shoutout goes to Mike on the cajón, whose subtle percussion adds rhythm and warmth to the stripped-down arrangement.
New episodes of The Bonfire Sessions will continue to roll out exclusively on The Sticks Music YouTube channel, showcasing a curated lineup of rising talent in a setting that feels as personal as it is cinematic. Sauce Music invites fans, press, and industry partners to tune in and experience something truly special.
