Wax Romeo is undoubtedly the world's greatest lover, but when he's done blowing kisses at the mirror, he can be found tinkering with party tunes in the studio, or playing at Hai Karate every Thursday with Calgary's finest, the Smalltown Djs. His father, a well-dressed thief known for carrying a cache of weapons inside a steel drum, taught Romeo about marauding and defrauding at a very early age. Since then, he's fleeced more fools than The North Face, stealing whatever he can, including the Golden Titty, which belonged to the dangerous Jamaican "Blouse an' Skirt Posse". When he's not writing self-congratulatory bio's, eating sheppard's pie, or lobbing empties, Wax Romeo defiles dance floors Calgary's Hifi Club and Marquee Room. Though he was hatched from a queer disco egg fertilized by the manic seed of a jheri-curled 80's R&B drummer, he pulls influence from the likes of the The Rub, and west coast party-chameleons, Vinyl Ritchie and the Smalltown Djs. If your party needs some step, Wax Romeo will get here fast, driving his empty brown limousine in the carpool lane. Expect a total shitmix of funk, rock, house, rap, disco, dancehall, and 80's, but watch your damn moneymaker, because Romeo roles dimes.
