About This Show

Meet Max & Heather Stalling, the dynamic singer-songwriter duo from Dallas, TX,
bringing a unique blend of lyrics, vocals, and fiddle playing to the heart of Texas and
Americana music.
Max Stalling: Armed with a master’s degree in Food Science from Texas A&M
University, Max traded his lab coat for a guitar, leaving behind a career as a research
scientist at Frito Lay to pursue his dreams as a singer-songwriter. Touring, gigging and
hustling for 20+ years, Max has built a large and loyal fanbase; playing pretty much
every venue you’ve ever heard of and many you haven’t. With 6 studio albums, three live
projects, and a chart-topping history in Americana radio, Max is a staple in the
Texas/Red Dirt scene. His star on the South Texas Music Walk of Fame in Corpus Christi
stands as a testament to his enduring impact.
Heather Stalling: An award-winning violinist and fiddle player, Heather’s musical
journey began at the tender age of 3. As a child and young teenager she competed in
fiddle contests across Texas and neighboring states; traveling with her parents while
winning trophies and fans along the way. At 18, she was recruited out of college to
become a member of “The Texas Gold Minors” in Branson, MO. Upon moving back to
Texas she was a highly sought after fiddle and worked with notable bands Bob
Schneider, Cory Morrow, Johnny Lee and Mark David Manders among others. She later
founded blactopGYPSY with friend Andie Kay Joyner, writing songs, touring extensively
and putting out two full length studio albums.
🎤 Together They Soar: Max and Heather, married since 2007, are finally combining
their musical talents to create a captivating project. Max handles rhythm guitar and lead
vocals, while Heather brings her exceptional fiddle skills and harmony vocals to the
stage. After years of individual success, their collaboration promises a fresh and exciting
musical experience.
🎭 The Show: Their performances, a blend of Max’s 20+ years of original songs,
occasional joint compositions, and well-chosen covers, create a show filled with musical
prowess, witty banter, and a touch of humor. First-time listeners can expect a fun
balance between solid originals, masterful fiddle playing, and engaging storytelling.
🚀 New Beginnings: Max and Heather are thrilled to embark on this joint musical
journey, sharing their love for music and each other with audiences old and new. Don’t
