A Wax Museum Of Great Music
I first heard David Wax Museum live playing on a street around Harvard Square in Cambridge, MA. There was a street fair that took up all of Harvard Square and live music was coming out of all corners. We stumbled across David Wax at the Club Passim tent which is a great folk club in Harvard Square that hosted and still hosts great folk bands from all around the country. They had everyone dancing in the streets that day with their style of Mexican mariachi music. There was a group of swing dancers who tore up the side street that day and I will never forget the joy and happiness on the faces of everyone that stop to watch and enjoy. That day we bought their album and to this day we can't stop playing it and dancing around the house. Colas has got to be one of my favorite on the album that we bought just because of its upbeat tune and catchy lyrics. Plus how can you not fall in love with a group that has a donkey jaw as an instrument in their band, pure genius and what a great sound. Today David Wax Museum has a new album out that I encourage any fun loving, upbeat, get your feet stomping and legs kicking music fan to run to the record store and pick it up and fall in love.
