Liverpool Olympia welcomed local artist Ni Maxine to the venue to film the music video for her latest release, ‘Time.’
Award-winning Liverpool-based neo-jazz star Ni Maxine drops her latest single, ‘Time’ via Ripe Records. Recently crowned Breakthrough Act of the Year at the Jazz FM Awards 2025 alongside pioneers Ezra Collective, Jalen N’Gonda and corto.alto, Maxine continues to wow listeners with her soulful and catchy beats.
Writing of her latest offering on her blog, Ni Maxine said:
The whole idea of the song is dismantling the concept of ‘Time’ which keeps us all in what sometimes feels like a chokehold. It came from the concept of the ‘Strong Black Woman’ which forced me to confront what it means to be a Black woman, existing in the 21st century and intertwined with the legacy of slavery and colonialism… I realised that I had been suppressing my feelings for most of my life, carrying loads of trauma and emotional baggage which I’d never had an opportunity to offload and still having to show up and work hard to prove my worth.
Wherever she ends up taking us next, Ni Maxine has the full support of all at Olympia, and is, of course, welcome back any time – a real pleasure to spend the day with!
Nordoff and Robbins is the UK’s largest music therapy charity, with a unique approach shaped by more than 60 years of practice. Through the power of music, it breaks through the barriers caused by life-limiting illness, disability and social isolation. From a grandparent living with dementia connecting to their family through song, a child with autism communicating for the first time or a teenager going through mental health challenges, music therapy can be transformational.
The North of England is the charity’s largest service area, with 55 music therapists and 164 partner organisations providing over 23,500 music therapy sessions in 2024, transforming the lives of more than 6,500 people in the region.
Held for the first time in Manchester in April 2024, the Northern Music Awards are the only awards set up specifically to recognise and celebrate the breadth of musical talent across the North of England.
Taking place this year at the historic Liverpool Olympia, the Northern Music Awards sponsored by Ticketmaster and Live Nation honour the very best artists, festivals, venues and industry figures from across the North.
Funds raised from the Northern Music Awards will help Nordoff and Robbins deliver even more music therapy in the North of England, improving the health and wellbeing of local communities.
