Wax Bandit

Brandon Heffernan is a seasoned musician who’s shared the stage with artists from a variety of genres including funk, hip-hop, jazz, swing, shoegaze, folk, and country. Having moved to Nashville in his 20s, Brandon was working alongside some of the top musicians in the scene. With two decades experience holding down the low end on bass guitar, and deep love for sampling and synthesis, Wax Bandit was born as a project to merge the acoustic and electronic worlds.

Steeped in a mix of hip-hop samples, ambient synthesis, downtempo grooves, and instrument looping, Wax Bandit aims to bring mellow rhythms with jazzy improvisation. Live performances can take shape as a live PA, DJ set, or a full band instrumental arrangement.

This year Wax Bandit will release his first full-length LP featuring a variety of musicians, singers, and emcees. Looking forward, Wax Bandit hopes to integrate more with Colorado’s artist community, finding shows for like-minded artist across sprawling genres.
