Maddox Jones Serves Summer Vibes with New Music Video, “Pineapple Salsa”
UK singer-songwriter Maddox Jones is serving up something sweet, spicy, and seriously fun with the brand-new music video for his single ‘Pineapple Salsa’, premiering June 11th via Radikal Records.
Originally featured on his sophomore album ‘Waiting for the World to Turn’, ‘Pineapple Salsa’ is a sun-soaked, Latin-tinged pop anthem packed with acoustic guitars, Latin percussion, trumpet hooks, and Maddox’s signature melodic charm. Now, the song gets a playful visual twist in a video that’s equal parts music video, cooking show spoof, and retro sitcom chaos.
The track itself is a feel-good summer jam bursting with flirtation and flavour.
“Pineapple Salsa? What can I say about this one… it’s a little different for me, not my usual vibe—but it’s a whole lot of fun. I wrote it with my mate Angus—he’d made some pineapple salsa and had it sitting in the fridge. We joked about turning it into a song title, and before we knew it, we were writing this fun, cheeky track. It’s basically about meeting a girl who’s got that perfect mix—so hot and so sweet, like pineapple salsa. It’s a bit of a metaphor, a bit of a flirt… and totally irresistible.” – Maddox Jones
The ‘Pineapple Salsa’ video follows the recent deluxe release ‘(Still) Waiting for the World to Turn’, which featured reimagined fan favourites like ‘21’, and came hot off the back of Maddox’s live appearances with Lucy Spraggan and an incredible run opening for pop icon Will Young on his UK comeback tour. In June Maddox will be supporting critically acclaimed singer-songwriter Rebecca Ferguson.
Maddox enjoyed early success with The Departure, securing four Top 40 hits, sharing the stage with iconic bands such as The Killers and Placebo, and playing prestigious festivals like Reading & Leeds and Glastonbury. Maddox has a track record of electrifying performances alongside notable acts like Thomas Heaton, Beaux, The Lottery Winners, and Lemar.
Having burst onto the scene as a solo artist in 2020 with the critically acclaimed EP, ‘Headspace’, the EP reached #4 in the iTunes Singer-Songwriter chart. The follow-up 2021 single, ‘Can’t Wait for the Summer’ followed suit, hitting the top spot on the same chart. Tipped as One to Watch by BBC Introducing Northampton, Maddox has garnered further acclaim across the industry, earning a spot at #5 on Music Week’s Commercial Pop and Upfront Club Chart with ‘Make Me Yours’ off his debut album ‘Believe It’.
Brimming with vibrant melodies and emotional depth, the now 18-track deluxe album showcases Jones’ evolution as an artist as he explores themes of reflection, personal growth, and the longing for change.
