The David Wax Museum

 
 

The David Wax Museum infuses Mexican son into its literary, countrified folk rock.


David Wax's circuitous journey from mid-Missouri to the back roads of Mexico to Harvard University inspires The David Wax Museum’s lively fusion of traditional Mexican and American folk music. Tagged as "one of Boston's hottest new bands" by The Boston Globe, they have toured with The Avett Brothers, shared the stage with The Low Anthem, tour up and down the Eastern seaboard, and this summer will join the Old 97's throughout the Midwest and Northwest. The band receives consistent radio play on XM Sirius Radio's Acoustic Coffeehouse; The Boston Globe selected the band's new album Carpenter Bird for its list of top 10 local albums of 2009; and NPR recently featured the band on a segment about Mexico-centric indie rock.
