Waxy in EXIL (Ticket link bio)

Augenwasser Band (Record Release Show)
Room Service (Support)

09.09.2026, 7 p.m.
EXIL, Hardstrasse 245, 8005 Zürich

After almost a year and a half beneath the surface, Waxy Bar reappears for one night only – finding temporary shelter at EXIL. Waxy may still be without a permanent home, but it is far from gone. Small concerts need space, especially in Zurich, where those spaces are becoming increasingly scarce. For this special return, two familiar guests take the stage: Augenwasser Band and Room Service.

Unmoved by the noise and urgency of the outside world, Augenwasser Band took their time creating Songs from the Aquarium. The aquarium becomes a metaphor for so-called third places: bars, cafés and concert venues where people meet in real life, yet somehow remain suspended outside everyday life. The album begins with a weightless instrumental before the full band slowly pulls the listener into a strange current of faux-sophisti-pop, indie psychedelia and drone-soaked ballads. Recorded over just two days in 2025, shortly after the first performances of the new material, the songs retain the spectral freshness of music still in the process of taking shape. Augenwasser Band bring their release tour to Exil for a rare live appearance – with no further concerts currently planned.

From the aquarium, we drift out to sea and onwards into the desert. Room Service open the evening with a raw yet melodic collision of lo-fi, surf and garage rock. Reverb-drenched guitars, playful basslines and driving drums move between hazy psychedelic passages and sudden bursts of energy – rough around the edges, free-flowing and carrying a distinct sense of distant places.

This Sunday 8 p.m, last regular Waxy show – [SOLD OUT]

Steve Gunn (Brooklyn NY, USA) is back, folks! Sip slow, because every note pours smooth like vintage maple syrup, rich and full-bodied—crafted for the road, built for the soul. This is a night of deep grooves and sky-high picking, straight from the heartland of melody. Catch the man who makes guitars sing at Waxy Bar—where the wax melts, and the tunes flow. His guitar’s got stories to tell, and they’ll stick to your soul like peanut butter on warm toast. So grab your pals, pull up a stool, and let Gunn’s melodies tumble through your mind like a lazy river. Don’t wait—this jug only comes around once! Sunday night never sounded better. by @waxy.bar

We’re in February, and the countdown is on—just a few more regular nights at Waxy Bar before the 33 Days Festival takes over. This Thursday at 8 p.m., join us for a special evening with Alois, bringing their lush, groove-laden sound to the Waxy stage. After the show, Moon Lagoon & Ronny Hunger will guide you through a David Lynch-esque DJ set—think hazy neon lights, deep cuts, and a hint of mystery.

Come by, say hi, and soak it in while you can.

Thursday 06.02. 8 p.m.

Live-Show:
Alois
Alois have always created their own world, blending dance-oriented artpop. Synth-driven songwriting blending electronic beats with tropical guitars. Now, they’re taking that rhythm to the streets with the new Drive-Thru! It’s a hybrid experience, just like Alois music: quick, convenient, and irresistibly smooth. Whether you’re cruising to your next destination or savoring a moment of Alois on the go, we’ve got you covered. Drive in, grab what you need, and hit the road with a groove. Available now at select locations.

DJ-Set:
[Twilight Zone Inn] Moon Lagoon – Ronny Hunger
Enter the “Twilight Zone Inn”—where the grooves are as mysterious as a lost episode of your favorite dream. This ain’t your run-of-the-mill DJ night; we’re serving up an otherworldly mix of lounge, exotica, and hillbilly psych that’ll make you wonder if you’ve stumbled into Twin Peaks. Drift through a haze of loner easy listening, surf rhythms, and gospel echoes. From Mali blues to popcorn pops, we’ve got the vinyl flavors to transport you beyond the ordinary.

Sinaloa x Waxy
Saturday, 25 January, from 7pm to 11pm
@waxy.bar , Dienerstrasse 33, Zürich

Ever wondered what a typeface might sound like? Sinaloa, the highly systematic, yet still sculptural classic designed by Rosmarie Tissi in 1974 bears a legacy of being in use for over 50 years. In the realm of music – rich with fans and collectors – the heritage of Tissi’s typeface becomes specially obvious: Sinaloa took hold across nearly all musical genres and can be found on the album sleeves of established musicians, obscure groups, one-hit wonders, and popular song compilations alike.

Dont miss out and join us and Mixmaster Müller at Zurichs finest @waxy.bar (Dienerstrasse 33, Zurich) for the rare opportunity to experience the legacy of «Sinaloa in Sound» and grab yourself one of the last copies of the exclusive dry-transfer edition on Saturday, 25 January, 7pm. taken in Dienerstrasse by @waxy.bar
