Brisbane’s WAAX, renowned for their dynamic and powerful performances and fronted by the charismatic Marie DeVita, are playing the Crowbar tonight. The band has carved out a niche in the Australian music scene with their raw energy and unapologetic sound. DeVita is a whirlwind of emotion on stage, channeling the spirit of icons like Patti Smith with her fervent, unapologetic delivery. Every song is an explosive release of pent-up energy, the kind that rattles your bones and seizes your soul. Tonight the diverse crowd is a sea of bobbing heads and flailing limbs as the band’s chaotic blend of thrashing guitars and pounding rhythms that feels both anarchic and deeply cathartic, washes over us.
