Maxine Ashley
“Bronx-Born babe Maxine Ashley is the new music name you want to namedrop now” – Vogue.com. Maxine has swapped her bedroom for the studio and is causing ears to prick up on both sides of the Atlantic. The heady combination of her Latino roots with the contemporary mix of R&B, electronic and soul beats, that scream of the city that never sleeps, are ones to add to your playlist now. Protégé to the industry’s ultimate tastemaker, Pharrell Williams, Maxine has been called the “Next big thing from the Bronx – following in the footsteps of JLO,” by Miss Vogue. Beyond music, Maxine’s incredible features, natural beauty and chola-girl grunge look have not gone unnoticed by the fashion world. Maxine has been a muse to iconic makeup artist Pat McGrath since 2017, shooting multiple brand campaigns and wearing exclusively Pat McGrath in the music video for her single HAPPY. Earlier this year Maxine took part in Vogue’s Beauty Secrets Video Series, which shows the beauty routines and products beloved by the biggest stars in beauty, fashion and pop culture. Most recently, Maxine debuted as the star of the Adidas Falcon Sneaker relaunch for Footlocker. “Artists like Maxine Ashley don’t come along that often.” – Nylon Magazine
