our story
Hiya. 👋🏻 I'm Leigh -- founder + candlemaker at wax + wāv.
I'm a singer/songwriter/musician who is obsessed with creating amazing and unique experiences around music.
That's actually how this company came to be...
I spent about 3 years as part of a trio here in Nashville. During that time, we wrote some great music, sang some amazing harmonies, played some fantastic shows, and met some of the most phenomenal humans and die-hard fans we even could have imagined. In addition to the typical merch like band tees, stickers and guitar picks, I REALLY wanted to create something for our fans that could elevate the way they experienced our music.
So we created a candle line. It was inspired by the lyrics of the song that made us a band (and that I walked down the aisle to less than a year later).
People LOVED them. They quickly became some of our best sellers on the road.
Well, the band lovingly parted ways...but I couldn't stop thinking about the candles.
And the pure magic that happens when you pair them with music.
I just couldn't shake the idea...and before I knew it, I was excitedly making plans and testing candle formulations for:
wax + wāv
I'm so glad you're here.
And I cannot WAIT for you to find YOUR perfect vibe. 🕯️
much love,
Leigh
