Maddox Jones has released his new single titled ‘We All Need Somebody’. Musically wispy and lyrically relevant, with a beast of a hook, Maddox adds to his already glorious repertoire with a solid addition.
It simply astounds me at how immersive and accessible Maddox Jones’ songwriting is. He writes for his voice. A perfect marriage of vocals and song with lyrical content that is as heavy as it is hitting.
Almost anthemic in it’s delivery, ‘We All Need Somebody’ has that uniqueness that makes the song as signature as it is personable. Let this song become a part of you. Leisurely listen as you make a life for yourself. This is that kind of music.

About Maddox Jones & ‘We All Need Somebody’
Recorded and released in support of Mental Health Awareness Week, Northampton singer-songwriter, Maddox Jones delivers the inspirational new single, “We All Need Somebody” – May 2023 via Radikal Records.
The track delivers the simple yet very important message of letting someone know you’re there for them when they’re struggling with their mental health or whatever troubles may be thrown their way. Mixed by Michael Brauer (Coldplay), and mastered by Joe LaPorta (Miley Cyrus) “We All Need Somebody” is an anthem to remind each-other that we are not in this alone and that the first step towards making a positive change can be talking about it with someone.
Maddox was inspired to write this song by the many students he’s met giving motivational speeches at schools all over the United Kingdom since last summer. He hopes the song will encourage people to talk to someone freely about what’s going on inside. At a time when so many young people and old alike are trying to cope with mental issues plaguing them the message could not be more timely.
Maddox started his solo venture back in 2020 with the critically acclaimed Headspace EP, reaching #4 in the iTunes Singer/Songwriter Chart. Having already built a career that included four Top 40 hits as well as playing at Reading and Leeds Festival and Glastonbury with The Departure, Maddox has been making a name for himself as a singer-songwriter, and was tipped as “One to Watch” in 2022 by BBC Introducing.
While the new direction may be a bit of a “departure” (Pun intended) from last year’s debut solo album ‘Believe It’ and come as a surprise to his fans, Maddox has no qualms reinventing himself all the time. His songwriting is inspired by all kinds of musical styles and his goal is always to write great songs – no matter what the style or genre.
Continuing his path to Pop Glory and with fierce determination, Maddox is in many ways a bit of a musical chameleon; adopting and updating his sound with each release. Having already built a career that included four Top 40 hits as well as playing at Reading and Leeds Festival and Glastonbury as frontman of The Departure, British singer-songwriter Maddox Jones made his debut as a solo-artist in 2020 with the critically acclaimed ‘Headspace’ EP.
Receiving immediate praise from the likes of SPIN, American Songwriter, BBC, iHeart Radio and more, Maddox was tipped as ‘One to Watch in 2022’ by BBC Introducing Northampton as he released his debut full-length album ‘Believe It’. Tracks bursting with vibrant colour, the album is an uplifting and hopeful album where Jones delves into themes of becoming himself, falling in love as well as overcoming and battling with addiction, whilst blending summer synth-washed pop with raw, stripped back, honest tracks, showcasing his singer-songwriter abilities.
Songwriting is what’s been keeping Maddox Jones busy since the release of his debut album last year. Aside from working on his next album he’s been invited to co-write with and for artists like Billy Lockett, Janet Devlin, RIP Youth and still found time to write, produce and perform an unofficial football anthem for the recent World Cup which drew lots of attention for himself and The Wealdstone Raider as well as his single “Get It” released earlier this year.
