Fox
Starting out as a solo project for former punk rock guitarist Jimmy Leen, the band now consists of six members and includes drums, bass, acoustic/electric/slide guitar, Hammond/Rhodes keyboards and piano, percussion, plus a mass of rich and warm backing vocals, providing a wide range of sound and arrangement possibilities. The six members originate from various musical backgrounds, but mostly jazz, rock, and pop, helping to position Fox as a strong and versatile live band able to provide a diverse medley of instruments, sounds and dynamics, a rarity in the current climate of a super-fast consuming music industry. Imagine a shimmering oasis above a desert road on a hot lazy sunny summer’s day. A light breeze kicks up a swirl of dust as old Chevrolet drives by. That’s where you’ll find Fox music somewhere between modern and classic rock, pop and indie music, and therefore for many it’s a surprise to learn that the guys all hail from Luxembourg. Rather than playing every concert that came their way, Fox has taken the conscious decision to make themselves a more ‘exclusive’ band and carefully select only the best local show and support slots through the past few years.
