Heavy Wax – Sounds of Oz

With Silk Sonic scooping the Grammys, its clear music lovers have a taste for classic funk and soul. If tasty horns, a tight rhythm section, and soulful vocals are your idea of heaven, you’re going to love what Gold Coast outfit Heavy Wax serve up. One listen to “Can’t Shake the Thought of You” and you’ll be hooked too.

“It’s about the rush of feeling a connection with a new person for the first time and the excitement of what’s to come,” explained lead vocalist Quin Samin. “Where did it come from? Well, we’ve all felt it, so hopefully it resonates with the listener.”

“Can’t Shake the Thought of You” comes from Heavy Wax’s self-titled debut album, which drops on May 6. These guys are fast developing a reputation as one of Queensland’s hottest live acts. You can see what all the fuss is about at one of their upcoming shows:

7 May 2022 – Roots Festival @ Home of the Arts, Gold Coast
11 June 2022 – Melting Sunsets @ Kingston Butter Factory Cultural Precinct, Kingston

It’s that weird period between Christmas and New Year, where no one is quite sure what day it is or what they’re supposed to be doing. If you’re doing it right, Heavy Wax’s current single “Take Life Easy” will strike a chord with you. And if you’re not, maybe this cruisy number can give you a couple of minutes of respite.

“This track is about blocking out all the noise that surrounds us; whether it be toxic relationships or other matters bringing us down, and really living life for what it is and what it should be – take life easy, live it, enjoy it, there’s no dress rehearsals,” explained the band’s lyricist and vocalist Quin Samin.

Heavy Wax have been hard at work creating material for their first full-length release. Enjoy the good vibes of this track and rest easy knowing there’s much more on the way!
