October 1, 2019 – Today, David Wax Museum shared the video for their latest single “Uncover The Gold” off their new album Line of Light. Out now via Nine Mile Records, Line of Light is the group’s fifth studio album and was produced by Carl Broemel of My Morning Jacket. The new video arrives ahead of their fall US tour which kicks off in Baltimore later this month. Watch “Uncover The Gold” HERE.

“David Wax Museum’s vocals soar throughout the video of ‘Uncover the Gold,'” stated Billboard who featured the video. “A hopeful tune where the band sings of the promise of each new day, ‘Uncover the Gold’ features delicate plucks of an acoustic guitar, hand-clapped rhythms and captivating harmonies from real-life married couple and bandmates David Wax and Suz Slezak.” This Saturday, October 5th, the group will make their national TV debut on CBS This Morning Saturday as they perform three songs off the new album.

Upon it’s release this summer, Line of Light debuted at #15 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart and #21 on the Americana chart while “Uncover The Gold” has charted in the Top 100 on Triple-A and Americana radio for the past nine weeks straight. Stream or purchase the album HERE.

Line of Light marks the band’s return for their first full-length album in four years. Fronted by duo David Wax and Suz Slezak, it finds the group tackling subjects both political and personal in a way they haven’t explored in the studio before. With Broemel taking the band’s folk-pop underpinnings and outfitting them with serious sonic force, the songs push deeper into themes of interconnectedness, spiritual longing, and deep personal reflection. Being artists from Charlottesville, VA, where they raise their two children, they found themselves responding to the political milieu we all find ourselves in at this moment. While not necessarily sunny, the collection shares a firm optimism in the human condition: there’s light beyond the darkness.

Line of Light shows David, Suz, and their collected accompanists on a sonic evolution – making music that rewards repeated listens. BrooklynVegan previously called “Uncover The Gold” a “beautiful-sounding song about a very ugly topic.” No Depression reviewed the album and said “Line of Light is a missive for their children and likely their community – anyone who would like some meaningful accompaniment in these darker days.” “Ultimately, this record feels like an expression of the mysterious alchemy of the songs, the studio, the producer, the musicians, and the time in our life,” explains Wax. “There was a lot of swirling around behind us in the studio while we wrote and recorded Line of Light.

The hate rally in our hometown of Charlottesville made us refocus on our responsibility as artists to put forth a positive, life-affirming vision. And on a personal level, Suz was coming to terms again with her bipolar diagnosis as it reared its head right before we went back to Nashville for the final 10-day session. In addition to adjusting to this new reality, Suz had to wean our 1-year-old son during the recording session because her medication would harm a nursing child. These inner and outer struggles are at the heart of this record.” The album features performances by multi-instrumentalist Danilo Henriquez, bassist Ben Kogan, keyboardist Paul Curreri, Russ Pollard (formerly of Sebadoh and Folk Implosion), and Carl Broemel and Tom Blankenship of My Morning Jacket.
