WAX & BOOGIE FEAT DREW DAVIES
Time: 12:30

This quintet from Barcelona has a wide repertoire: Boogie from the 30’s, Swing from the 40’s and Rhythm & Blues from the 50’s. But they can also boast of collaborating for some years now with the great British saxophonist and singer Drew Davies.

For more than a decade, Wax & Boogie has been able to capture the true spirit of traditional Afro-American music in an exceptional way, although transformed into its own expressive code.

A powerful and charismatic singer, impeccable Blues & Boogie piano, a strident rhythmic base and a fiery saxophone: what more could this brilliant line-up that ignites audiences and audiences every time they appear do?

The Wax & Boogie and Drew Davies combo was selected by the discerning audience of the prestigious Ascona International Jazz Festival 2019 in Switzerland as the second best line-up out of more than 50 bands from all over the world.

They are currently presenting their fifth album, “Make up your mind”, recorded at Jump Start Studios in Paris.

Members of the band::

  • Ster Wax – Vozcals
  • David Giorcelli – Piano
  • Drew Davies – Tenor Sax / Vocals
  • Oriol Fontanals – Double Bass
  • Reginald Vilardell – Drums
