Since the issue of their monster 2019 debut LP Big Grief, Brisbane power post-punk outfit WAAX have maintained a singular drive to create and release their own uncompromising brand of high emotion, alternative rock ‘n’ roll.

Lead by the fierce energy of vocalist and founder Maz DeVita, WAAX have used a history of mortal trials faced and overcome to inform a brand of song writing that cut deep and gives no quarter.

With their ranks bolstered by the addition of new guitarist James Gatling, who joins follow guitarist Ewan Birtwell, drummer Tom Bloomfield and bassist Tom Griffin, WAAX’s reputation as a must see on any festival bill continues, though in it’s now supercharged form.

After an inspired take on Basement Jaxx’s Good Luck for triple j’s Like A Version and a blistering split single with mates DZ Deathrays late last year, WAAX have been putting in the groundwork for a huge 2021 to come with new music and large announcements to come.
