If you were wondering where Grammy Award winner Maxwell’s second ‘Blacksummers’ night’ album, part of a trilogy, is, we have bad and good news.  According to Maxwell, the album was to be released this summer but, due to the response stemming from the first album, it has to be pushed back a bit.

“I had a plan — every year something new, and I thought that that would be a good enough time to sort of give people space to feel like they weren’t being inundated by what I was doing,” Maxwell said this week, admitting the push back is a ‘good problem’. “I’ve had this entire trilogy with me for years, for four or five years, so I can wait. I just want people to get it when they want it. … At this point, it’s in their hands.”

No word on when the second part of his trilogy will hit stores. Maxwell is however going on tour this summer. Joining Jill Scott, he will play over twenty dates through July which includes a July 9th stop at Nationwide Arena in Columbus,  Ohio.

Maxwell’s “Blacksummers’night”was released last July (2009). It has since spawned the singles “Pretty Wings,” “Bad Habits,” and “Fistful of Tears”.
