Biography

  • Maze (formed in 1970) is an American soul, R&B, funk and quiet storm band, often known as Maze featuring Frankie Beverly, based out of San Francisco, California, U.S.

    Originally from Philadelphia, singer-songwriter, producer, arranger and multi-instrumentalist Frankie Beverly, formed Raw Soul in 1970. The group recorded a number of singles with limited success and subsequently moved to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1981, where the group was introduced to Marvin Gaye. Before long Raw Soul became a huge success, were invited to tour in support of Gaye, and at his recommendation changed their name to Maze in 1976.

    The same year, thanks to Mr. Gaye’s persuasion with the label, Maze signed with Capitol Records and released their debut album “Maze featuring Frankie Beverly” in 1977. The album was certified gold and earned the group a considerable fan base, aided by the singles “Happy Feelin’s”, “While I’m Alone” and “Lady of Magic”. At this time singer and rhythm guitarist Beverly was joined by lead guitarist Wayne Thomas, keyboard player Sam Porter, percussionist and backing vocalists Ronald “Roame” Loary and McKinley “Bug” Williams, and drummer Billy “Shoes” Johnson.

    Maze’s sophomore album “Golden Time of Day” featuring the No. 9 R&B hit “Workin’ Together” was followed by “Inspiration” in 1979. Both these albums and all subsequent releases have been certified gold, and reached similar positions in U.S. Billboard 200 and U.S. R&B charts, which speaks volumes to the band’s consistency and devoted following. “Joy and Pain” was released in 1980, followed by “We Are One” in 1983, which marked Maze’s introduction into the UK charts reaching No. 38 and selling-out eight shows at the Hammersmith Odeon in London, UK.

    Maze’s subsequent album “Can’t Stop the Love” in 1985 was the band first chart-topping U.S. R&B album, led by the singles “Back In Stride” and “Too Many Games”. In 1989 the band moved to Warner Bros. and released the album “Silky Soul”, which also found its way to the top of the R&B chart. Around this time the group proved popular with rappers who sampled a number Maze’s songs. “Back to Basics” was released in 1993, which the group supported with an extensive tour schedule.

Live reviews

  • Maze

    All I can say is, I love me some Frankie Beverly and Maze!! I just turned 54 year old and had decided the next time I see him, I will get a ticket close to the stage. My partner made it possible. He's anticipating my passing out from excitement at the concert. Everyone who knows me, are aware of my obsession with my favorite artist. His music has always been therapeutic for me. As I'm typing the radio is on and guess what song just came on, "Joy and Pain". I love me some Frankie!!❤❤❤❤

  • At 75 years young he and the

    Amazing Maze crew will fill you up. I have been entertained by them through the years from mid 70's. I can't remember the count. They will still give you your money's worth. Frankie such a talented composer of hits that still sounds brand new. His voice has become raspy through time and usage but he don't miss a beat. The audience makes sure of that by singing along. Frankie Beverly and Maze are one of a kind. They are iconic...

  • Great show! Well worth the money. Frankie Beverly & Maze leaves you musical appetite full! I've seen them in the 80's at the circle stat theatre in San Carlos Ca. And also in Oakland at the Fox theatre with Robin Harris (Bay bay kids) as an opening act. After all these years there's no decline in their performance.
