VH1 announced today its lineup for the 15th anniversary season of the renowned music franchise "VH1 Storytellers."

Featured bands and artists this season will include Death Cab For Cutie, Kings of Leon, Maxwell, My Morning Jacket, Cee Lo, and Ray LaMontagne.

Hailing back to the show's early roots, the new season will aim to provide a truly personal showcase for some of the greatest songwriters of today.

The "VH1 Storytellers" music specials focus on the anecdotes, artistic musings and stories that inspired the artists and their music. These performers aren't afraid to tell all as they expose the most intimate details of their creative process for the audience. Kings of Leon will kick off the new season of "VH1 Storytellers" beginning this May.

"With this new season we want to go back to the original idea of great singer/songwriters who you don't see on TV very often talking to a small audience about their inspirations – where the songs come from," said Bill Flanagan, Executive Producer. "'VH1 Storytellers' started with artists like Paul Simon, Elvis Costello and Tom Waits. It feels right to put the spotlight now on singer/songwriters like Jim James of My Morning Jacket and Ray LaMontagne. These are the greats of this generation."

wow... i used to see maxwell around, hanging out, just as he started to hit it big. my sister used to see him when he was waiting tables. that's the one thing i love about NYC; you see people all the time, but you don't exactly see anyone drooling around them. everyone's so unphased. at least that i've seen. we all put on one pant leg at a time.

anyways, back to the subject: that would be interesting to see: maxwell doing the narrative of his art and life.
