The David Wax Museum — artist
The David Wax Museum is an Americana band known for blending folk, rock, and traditional Mexican son music. Founded by David Wax and Suz Slezak, the group draws notable influences from Mexican folk traditions, American roots music, and indie rock. Their sound is defined by the use of instruments like the jarana, a Mexican guitar-like instrument, and the quijada, a donkey jawbone percussion instrument, creating a unique fusion that bridges cultural and musical genres. Their lyrical storytelling and harmonies further distinguish their work within the contemporary folk scene.
