Since he began releasing music a decade ago, Maverick Sabre has had one goal: to create albums that land as close to people’s hearts as possible. Born in Hackney, Stoke Newington, Mav moved to Ireland at the age of four, spending his formative years in County Wexford before returning to London at seventeen. Raised on a rich musical diet of Blues, Folk, and Country passed down from his father, he developed an early and enduring passion for music. As an artist in his own right, with his trademark smooth vocals, he has stayed faithful to his aim and become synonymous with honest, soulful songwriting. As he prepares to release his fifth album, Burn The Right Things Down, Mav embodies the mindset that there is no time to waste.
The inspiration for Burn The Right Things Down sparked towards the end of 2023 when Mav felt an urgent need for change—a brush with existentialism. It wasn’t triggered by a particular loss but rather a profound realisation that change was necessary. Mav decided to step back from London and immerse
himself in crafting music that resonated with his vision. Embracing the idea that tomorrow isn’t guaranteed, Mav channelled this mindset into his creative process. The album unfolds in two distinct worlds: one portrayed through black-and-white visuals, artwork, and press shots, where Mav confronts harsher realities, and the other, vibrant and colourful, capturing a dreamlike, psychedelic atmosphere reflected in the album artwork and videos. This contrast embodies the themes of the songs themselves.
Musically, the record is a melting pot of genres and influences, weaving these diverse sounds into a cohesive narrative. During its creation, Mav immersed himself in specific genres and albums, often playing films without dialogue or old black-and-white projector movies, sometimes alongside his band for inspiration. The visual side of the project draws from early ’90s black-and-white Hip-Hop videos and the works of directors like Andrei Tarkovsky, Roy Andersson, and Ingmar Bergman. Mav uses his voice as an instrument —through echoes, projections, and howling—pushing his artistry into new territory. The album captures a powerful ethos of urgency, freedom, and self-expression.
