On Numb, Johnny Maxwell is able to link together R&B, reggae, and EDM into an infectious track. A flawless production allows Maxwell’s inimitable vocals and the sweeping synths ample space to shine alone. These elements combine to create a carefree track that has wheels well beyond the autumn months. Fans will be spinning Numb through the end of the year due to Johnny’s honest vocals, an eclectic blend of vocals and an overall sound that will work equally well on a range of radio stations. The video for Numb hammers home the island rhythms that are so prominent here.
