MARIE DEVITA
ARTIST, WAAX FRONTWOMAN
Marie is the frontwoman and founder of WAAX band. An early reputation as ‘a live band to be reckoned with’ dictated their path as a punk-infused rock band with the “utterly terrifying” DeVita fronting – becoming not only one to watch, but also somewhat of a spokesperson for angsty youngsters with something to get off their chest. They relate to DeVita, her words, her songs, her restlessness and her realness.
