David Wax Museum is an indie-folk and roots rock band who seamlessly blends traditional Mexican music with an Americana twist. Husband and wife collaborators David Wax & Suz Slezak had their breakthrough in 2010 after winning a contest for a spot at the Newport Folk Festival. Paste Magazine dubbed The Museum “the break out act” of the festival. After releasing several critically acclaimed albums, they are now touring on their fourth and boldest studio album to date, Guesthouse. In typical David Wax Museum fashion, the songs on Guesthouse are simplistic and sophisticated, elegant and plainspoken all at once.

Darlingside (Don Mitchell, Auyon Mukharji, Harris Paseltiner, and David Senft) are a Massachusetts-based ensemble whose sound is an eclectic blend of 60s folk, clever wry wit, classical arrangements, soaring harmonies, and a modern indie-rock sensibility. The four vocalists and multi-instrumentalists construct every piece collaboratively, pooling ideas so that each song bears the imprint of four different writing voices. The final product threads the collective memory of the four songwriters, nodding to the music of their parents’ generation while establishing a sound that is all their own.
