David Wax Museum, fronted by married duo Suz Slezak and David Wax, from left, will be in concert Friday, Jan. 29, at Barking Legs Theater, 1307 Dodds Ave.
The formation of the band merged her love of traditional American Irish folk music with his Mexo-Americana leanings.
A breakout performance at the 2010 Newport Folk Festival and the three albums that ensued earned accolades from outlets including NPR, Spin, Entertainment Weekly, The New York Times and The Guardian.
For their latest studio album, “Guesthouse,” they’ve retained the warm sound of their folk origins while adding an indie rock approach with synthesizers, layers of percussion and adventurous sonic processing.
Tickets are $12 in advance, $15 at the door for this Gig City production. Call 423-624-5347 or visit www.barkinglegs.org.
