Band: WAAX

Member/Role: Marie DeVita/Vox, keys

Hometown: Brisbane

Short description of your band and your music: We are (now) a five-piece band of mates/misfits with a common goal to create a chaotic sonic atmosphere. The songs are as deep as they are loud, as wide as they are static. We've become a notoriously unpredictable live act around Brisbane, attracting audiences of all types with our unique and curious onstage presence. I'd say we're a distinct variation of a post-punk, post-grunge, alternative-rock kind of sound. Aside from that, we're just a bunch of best friends doing what we love.

What are you hoping to achieve from showcasing at BIGSOUND? Firstly, it's an honour to be one of the winners of the triple j Unearthed comp ­ so to share that stage with some incredible talent is real exciting. We intend on showcasing some tracks off our forthcoming EP, meet and greet as many industry-folk and artists as possible, soak up the vibes and hopefully collect a few new fans along the way!

Why should people come and see you from amongst the many cool bands at BIGSOUND? No bull, we're something really different. Our live shows are freakin' intense. I don't know how else to describe it. It's like an aural reality-check that also comforts you, kind of like a tough mother figure filtered through a shitload of fuzz.
