Maxwell Schaeffer in the B&B Basement Speakeasy, February 5, 2026

Join us Thursday, February 5, 2026 in the Basement Speakeasy at Board & Batten (1408 Walnut) as we welcome our good friend Maxwell Schaeffer back to our stage.

Maxwell Schaeffer is a singer-songwriter, composer, and lyricist whose “song stories” blend heartfelt storytelling with the rootsy textures of acoustic Americana, country, alt-country, and acoustic rock. A decades-long composer, radio personality, voice artist and podcast creator, Maxwell’s distinctive voice and easygoing authenticity carry through his musical work. His songs capture the humor, heartbreak, and humanity of everyday life—crafted with the same warmth and narrative spirit that made him a familiar voice to generations of Iowa listeners. A proud inductee of the Iowa Rock ’n’ Roll Hall of Fame, Maxwell continues to share his creative voice through performances, recordings, and collaborations that celebrate connection, place, and the timeless art of storytelling through song.
