Wax Owls - The Appetite [Music Review] June 09, 2023 by Travis Erwin in Music, Folk, Singer/Songwriter Rating: 4 out of 5 “Chasing a dream comes with some sacrifices and tough decision but when you have true passion and follow your heart those decisions are almost a relief. This song is about Wax Owls vocalist, Gerry Hirschfeld given in to his creative hunger and transitioning from a career as a lawyer to full-time songwriter and performer. ’The Appetite’ is an Indie folk ode to passion and faith that things will work out when you allow yourself to be free and chase your dreams.. ” — Travis Erwin ~ LA on Lock Blogger

Wax Owls - Set it Free [Review] September 16, 2020 by Travis Erwin in Music, Folk, Commercial Rating: 4.5 out of 5 “In what is the debut single for Wax Owls, ‘Set It Free’ is a big soaring brand of Commercial Folk. Falling into a stratosphere somewhere between Mumford & Sons and Tom Petty the band’s sound feels lively and emotional on this track. Lyrically, the song is about moving back and sort of facing your past while acknowledging the roads you’ve traveled. ” — Travis Erwin (LA on Lock Blogger)
