Sat: Maxwell 8 p.m. Paramount Theatre, 1621 Glenarm Place. $59.50, $149.50. 866-461-6556, official website In the late ’90s, the name Maxwell might not have conjured thoughts of morning coffee. Maxwell the R&B singer had too many Grammy nominations and popular hits to be confused with a ubiquitous brand-name grocery item. A six-year tour hiatus, though, has given coffee an edge. Until now. The neo-soul artist hits the Paramount stage this Saturday with new songs, including “Pretty Wings,” which he previews on his MySpace page.
