Wax Tailor - Hope and Sorrow

Wax Tailor, aka JC le Saout, earned international popularity with 2005’s Tales of Forgotten Melodies which received comparisons to Portishead, DJ Shadow, and RJD2 and spent nearly 30 weeks on the iTunes Top Electronic Albums charts. His latest release, Hope and Sorrow, via Decon Records follows in the footsteps of his breakout debut, combining trip-hop, turntablism, and hip hop into a signature sound that’s won praise from critics and fans alike. Hope and Sorrow features appearances by Sharon Jones, Voice, Charlotte Savary, Ursula Rucker, The Others, and more, and will be released on April 3rd.

About Wax Tailor:

JC's stage name, Wax Tailor, originated in 2004 with the release of his EP “Lost The Way.” He subsequently released his first full-length album, “Tales Of The Forgotten Melodies,” completely on his own. The album garnered critical acclaim and love from French music fans and became one of the best selling electronic releases of the year. His next move was to take his show live, with a four-piece band, and find a way to translate the cinematic feel of his music through the use of video. Building on the solid foundation in France, Wax Tailor licensed “Tales” to Decon in 2006 for North American distribution and continued touring across the globe, opening up for the likes of Aceyalone & RJD2. In addition to the release of his sophomore effort, “Hope & Sorrow,” 2007 will see Wax Tailor bring this prolific live show to the United States.

An artist's second album is often seen as the moment of truth. With “Hope & Sorrow,” set for release in April, 2007, Wax Tailor confirms his musical identity. Often categorized as trip-hop or downtempo hip-hop, Wax Tailor breaks musical barriers using a sonic palette to demonstrate his life chronicles tainted in soul, jazz, and funk.
