Max Bartos is a 22-year-old singer and actor from New York City, best known for originating the role of Darren in Sing Street: The Musical. His favorite roles and credits include Johnny in American Idiot, The Preacher in Runaway Home, The Song of Bernadette, and Uncut Gems.

A self-taught musician, Max plays six instruments, including acoustic and electric guitar, piano, drums, bass, banjo, and mandolin.
