WAX BOOKING has been devoted to producing international tours for artists, mostly from today’s creative and hybrid music scene. Encouraging the emergence of new aesthetics, born of artistic and collaborative fusion, means doing our bit to meet the great need to present projects that are legitimately rooted in cultural heritage. Our artistic choices push back against the folkloristic representations that still too often feed imaginations and keep people’s consciences and audiences captive
