Since they first met back in 2014, Connor Hansell and Keith Wadsworth have been
exploring new sonic territory. Pulling from diverse musical backgrounds, the duo
combine music that is distinctly of our time, but harkens back to the glory days of
analogue recording. Blending a mix of hard hitting drums, classic hip hop and funk
grooves, guitar, and an ever changing arsenal of analogue synths, the two create
captivating music, that is as focused on story telling as it is on sound design. On
stage Wax is known for their energetic live performances, incorporating live
instrumentation, including guitar, bass, vocals and modular synthesis. Together the
two have released music on various labels, including Atlantic Records and Gravitas.
They have also had several sync placements on channels including VH1, and on The
Daily Show with Trevor Noah on Comedy Central. The duo has performed and toured
with an eclectic mix of acts, including Pretty Lights, Lotus and Manic Focus.
