Wax Charmer is a series of contradictions, a Los Angeles-based rock band whose three members wield widely contrasting tastes and musical styles.
The trio’s diverse collection of influences ultimately makes its members more informed and nuanced musicians. It’s this blend of sonic perspectives that culminates in a brand of rock music that is truly organic.
It’s evident on “Suburban Replay,” the group’s debut EP, which arrives Feb. 21. The four songs skate between slick Bossa-Nova jams, hard-hitting funk grooves and infectious 90s-inspired vocal hooks.
Wax Charmer is Jordan H. Kleinman (vocals, guitar), Henry Kuckens (guitar) and Jacob Lauing (drums).
Joining the band for this special event are El Mañana and Claire George
